Hi,

Can anyone tell me about this release by the Viceroys. It is called Ghetto Vibes 1972-1976.

I have seen it on CD but am not familiar with the tracks.

Can someone give me some feedback on their recordings of this period.

Thanks

Dave

On this album you can find some rare Viceroys tracks, recorded in the 70's - early reggae, roots tunes and even a r&b tune - recorded in Channel One, Randy's Studio 17, King Tubby's and Treasure Isle.
Almost every tune is in the Viceroys vocal harmony style.

Worth listening for those who are in 70's reggae and like a mix between early reggae and roots.

Yes Collieman, this issue is going on for a while. The more interesting to know who is who on this album.
