Trevor Junior & Little John - Showcase Volume 1
http://www.roots-archives.com/release/4868
Great showcase album, including the brutal 'it's history' on a slow version of the hot milk riddim and 'I Wanna Dance With You' a version of Ken Boothe - 'silver words'. Simple but wicked dubs too on this one.

A DJ LP: 'Purpleman and Papa Tollo in a dancehall style'
http://www.roots-archives.com/release/1319
Great rhythms and heavy mixing here

Don't know, if it is lesser known, but I never came across it since I bought it in 1980 or 1981.

Been listening A LOT to two albums lately. One isn't in Roots-Archives and the other one is this one.

[cover=3229,2893]

The album that has yet to be added to the database is the incredible and brilliant Brigadier Jerry, Icho Candy et al LP on Jwyanza. What a set it is. Perhaps the perfect rub-a-dub album in my opinion.

Scan of label and tracklisting here (with some other info but on Swedish);

Both albums are rather unknown but brilliant I'd say.
