Yeah - UK!!!!!

I am looking for any informations about the two compilation LPs which were released in the UK (London + Manchester).
Exspecially I am interested in track-listings.
THANKS!

I saw one of those on eBay a week ago. Was a bit curious. Looked to be a 90's album judging on the typography and design.

there is also a related Dan Hudson and the sears album.. (got to leave the place ) done by the same people who did those 2 UK showcase albums.

here is the tracklist of the London showcase album: (really not worth looking for imo.. mostly lovers rock style. 360 degrees different compared to the 1970s/80s Jamaican releases )

1)christine douglas - greetings
2)pat edgar - step right in
3) earl naptali - do it together.
4)simon dan - moving in grace
5)maxine wall -youth of today
6)culture levi - homeward bound
7)elizabeth st brice - I don't want to do wrong
8) ambassador - kingdom of jah
9) kevin gad - holy mount zion
10) layo issacher - call on the emporer
11) sherone goodman - Diligently
12) trinity sisters - glory be

and here is the other one (not sure about Manchester though ) this one is more digital/dancehall/synth style.

1)paco simeon - one father's children
2) george beaufort - above the horizon
3) black brothers - slave ship
4) philip gilbert - world leaders
5) daniel ray - A.O.U
6) patriarchs - I and I are the orthodox
7) frankie diamond - beat me beat me
8) oliver judah - repatriaton time
9) jah lenks - got to live good
10) soljie asher - one voice
11) marva gillespie - prophet gather Israel
12)junior byfield - african sun

This above TTOI album is titled, "Twelve Voices Jamaica"... This used to be an all-inclusive TTOI members-only album..
Great lyrics and alot better than most people would admit...
Studio 12 Orthodox Muzik label/productions...
