Will someone please guide me threw the last 3 years of 70-roots releases?

Post by Larry Bouloise »

Hi
Since Roots archives stopped review new releases in 2008, and I've become a father, I'm afraid that i missed many good new reissues and compilations. My alarm bell rang when I a cople of weeks ago stumbled on the deluxe release of Murvins Police and thieves on Amazon from 2009!!!

If anyone have one or two suggestions of what i might have missed during the last years i would be very thankful!

My taste is standard:
Anything Lee perry related
yabby You
Bunny lee
The Wailers
Big Youth, Max romeo, horace andy, Ijhaman, dub , dj, rootsy dancehall
Well anything that's from jamaica 1968-80 and has the vibe!!!

All the best
Erik, Sweden
