Tougher Than Tough

Tougher Than Tough

Over the course of four CDs, this is the essential musical history of the loudest island in the world, with the emphasis on essential. It starts in the time before ska, and brings it all up to the dominance of dancehall in the 90s. Along the way there s ska, rocksteady, reggae, and dub; 95 great tracks, every single one a classic. About the only major artist not represented is Lee Perry, and his productions sneak in there. Steve Barrow s notes will carry you through the story. This is about as perfect as they come, in both form and content. Chris Nickson SKU : ADIB000003QLC
