Jah Woosh RIP

[ital joe]

yes, this is sad news.

Such a shame & just when he was starting to reissue some of his music eg. the V/A Reggae Bakbone CD & Flabba Holt's Vision Of Africa on CD as well.
Really like his 2 King Tubby's In the Mix albums & Reggae Revive Classics is another good one.
It would be great if more of his Original Music catalog/re-releases could continue, as he produced some brilliant music.

True, I hoped he could do something for a rerelease of [cover=5218,1544] too. Too late..., I only recently discovered some of his work. A pity really.

Didn't know Woosh had something to do with this release, what's his connection Mark?

cheers

Take a magnifying glass and look at the label (right hand side). The album also shares a track with [cover=768,896]

[j j]

Oh ok yeah it's pretty small! Who knows ,maybe someone will take over his reissue programme?

cheers

I finally have my own copy of Unity Showcase and found out Jah Woosh is not the producer. It is Keeling Beckford. Hence the catalog number KB03. Perhaps 12 stars was Keeling Beckford's own label. Curious about KB01 and KB02...

12 Stars was Keelings label and from what I recall reading (in an interview with Errol Scorcher?) that Horace and Errol LP was a bootleg.
