The Trojan Story – v/a 3cd/3lp

50 jaar geleden, in 1971 dus, de eerste Trojan poging om een soort van overzicht te geven van de prachtige Jamaicaanse muziek tot die tijd.Voor velen ging er een muzikale wereld open. Nu na 50 jaar voorbeeldig heruitgeven, vooral die, prijzige, 3lp versie ziet er prachtig uit. Maar het 3cd doosje doet het ook prima uiteraard. Must have zouden we zeggen. ‘’50 years on, The Trojan Story is reissued and comes with a 50-page booklet with stories behind the songs from the likes of The Maytals, Jimmy Cliff, Alton Ellis, Duke Reid, Desmond Dekker, The Ethiopians, Lee ‘Scratch’ Perry and many more. There are 50 tracks in total.’
