The Best of Trojan Reggae Vol. 1 is one of five LPs in a series of newly created Trojan Records compilations celebrating the 2015 re-launch of the infamous Trojan Records reggae label. Towards the close of 1968, the Jamaican music scene experienced the latest of a series of major musical revolutions, as the cool sound of Rock Steady was usurped by a jumpier, less sedate style that quickly became widely known as reggae. This set features 12 tracks including classics from Desmond Dekker & The Aces, Dave & Ansel Collins, John Holt and many other reggae legends.1 Israelites - Desmond Dekker & the Aces 2 Double Barrel - Dave & Ansel Collins 3 Liquidator - the Harry J All Stars 4 Long Shot Kick De Bucket - the Pioneers 5 Money in My Pocket - Dennis Brown 6 Everything I Own - Ken Boothe 7 Young, Gifted and Black - Bob & Marcia 8 Love of the Common People - Nicky Thomas 9 Let Your Yeah Be Yeah - the Pioneers 10 Help Me Make It Through the Night - John Holt 11 Hurt So Good - Susan Cadogan 12 Uptown Top Ranking - Althea & Donna
