These are quite famous man (not all of them recorded full LP though)!!
Artists like:
Zu Zu
Blacka T
Dangerfield
Patrick Irie
Lucan Scissors
Daddy Juicy
Richie Mac
...
are not very famous.
Meex.
When cpv started this thread he used those kind of artists as an example. He asked about lesser known vocal LPs and Jahson was actually included in his question.
Also, each of the people I listed do have LPs out. Since you didn't know that it seems that these artists do have less known about them.
Fair enough, still, Blacka T, Daddy Juicy and Richie Mac (Donald) did record full LPs.
Other artists who recorded full albums, and who are of interest are (amongst others:
Blacka T (Message)
Ruffy & Tuffy (Black Star)
Jah Larry (Sarge)
Bankie Banks(Redemption)
Santa Ranking (Trump Jack)
New Breed (Top Ranking)
Daddy Juicy + Pinchy (LDC)
etc etc...
The one I thing as superb but underrecorded is King Rolex.
Love his voice and all cuts i' ve found (all for Nkrumah Thomas). Anyone got idea who is he, has he ever cut an full LP or is he still active?
That' s the question from the beginning of my '45s adventure (let's say beginning 2003).
i think king rolex was the former rolex who did great 45s like red hot', he's called alpha rowen now. don't know what he's doing, he had a 45 for jet star
