Greatest 7"single ever on Sunset imo is The Heptones' "Poverty in the Ghetto". B-Side version of this single is not on Auralux release from 2005.

Toyan - Best of Toyan 1985 release.

How is the Echo Minott- Rock & Calypso. Is it digital?

light digital, good album

i have a 12 inch john holt and the sunset band does the version.- pretty girl. Its on three kings label ,is there any connection with the sunset label and this band? i kinda dont think so ,but ask just in case.

There were actually two Sunset labels in the 80's, one associated with Harry J and another one associated with the mid-80's producer duo Lewis & Marshall.
Of those albums mentioned in the Roots Archives list, the Half Pint Lp comes from the different Sunset label. I think all others are on the Harry J one.
