Thers a CD issued called Keyboard King, I don't think it is the same as the LP of the same title but nonetheless is it really worth getting and can be found very cheaply. Pick it up and enjoy Mitoo's brilliant signature sound.

Yeah, but you don't get Lord Tanamo singing over the rhythm on the LP.

Which one? Reggae MAgic? Let's Put It All Together? Wishbone? Money Makers? If it's Money Makers (the one pictured in my post above), I'd trade you for that.

My favourite Mittoo´s albums are Evening Time and Keep on Dancing, maybe the most soul influenced.
The Upsetters and specially Harry J. All Stars have great soulful tracks with organ in the fore, the Trojan best of is quite nice. The Hippy Boys have this great album with organ instrumentals:

Trojan has launched a reissue of it with 15 bonus tracks!!
Nowadays The Aggrolites are doing great early reggae with loads of organ and soul-funk. It really sounds as recorded 30 years ago. Check them out if you dont know them.
Peace
