There's a 4 track 12" from Restriction, originally released in 1984 it's a one off repress of 500 copies for RSD 2015.

Thanks for the info shake and Dubmart. I did a quick search but haven't been able to track down the tunes that will be included in the Soul Jazz package. Does anybody know if that's been shared yet?

(Also noticed that there's a Trojan Rude Boy Rumble LP "Compiled by the Soul Selector" - hopefully not the same old same old....)

Thanks.

Maybe I'm not looking harder.. I only see Bob Marley interviews $21+ and Joe Gibbs & the Professionals African Dub Chapter 2 Pictures disc $34.98.
And especially for the African Dub Chapter 2 Pictures disc ( a supposedly a collector's item) bet it's gonna sound worst than those faulty jamaican pressing. I want to listen to my vinyl not hang 'em and look at it.
If they had released the whole series as a boxset I'd have bought it in a heartbeat.

I missed the Restriction 12". Don't know much about them but the vinyl is on pre-order at the Bristol Archive Records bandcamp and the sound clip sounds cool....

I haven't yet found a track list for the Soul Jazz release, hopefully there might be a few suprises in there...

I'm not too bothered about a picture disc for The African Dub release, it's all about how it sounds, not what it looks like. Reminds me of those vinyl clocks and ashtrays you can find these days, what's that all about? Vinyl is made to be put on a record player and listened to..
