In the 1970s, while Jamaica promoted it's own roots reggae styles around the world, powerhouse USA soul labels such as Motown, Philadelphia International and Stax Records were at the same time all popular on the island. \/\/ This interaction between American and Jamaican music was not limited to Jamaica. In Britain, first-generation Caribbean-émigré children in the 1960s and early 70s grew up with an equal love of both soul and reggae, which manifested itself in the home-grown arrival of lovers rock in the mid-1970s. \/\/ Soul Jazz Records' new 'Reggae Island Soul' tells this story of how soul and funk-infused reggae in the 1970s united the sounds of Jamaica, USA and the UK into a highly addictive cultural hybrid of styles.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv data-bt-autogen\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJohn Holt - You'll Never Find\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCornell Campbell - Be Thankful\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eElizabeth Archer ; the Equators - Feel Like Making Love\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Chosen Few - People Make the World Go Round\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDave ; Ansel Collins - Single Barrel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Now Generation - Shaft\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Marvels - Some Day We'll Be Together\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Darker Shades of Black - War\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWinston Curtis - Private Number\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLee Perry ; the Upsetters - Bathroom Skank\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSlim Smith - Watch This Sound\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWinston Francis - Sitting in the Park\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Sensations - If I Don't Watch Out\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCarl Bert ; the Cimarons - Slipping Into Darkness\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Darker Shades of Black - Ball of Confusion\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJah Youth - Ain't No Sunshine\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5026328105970\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLabel:\u003c\/strong\u003e Soul Jazz\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRelease Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e 6.26.26\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e CD\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Soul Jazz","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43594042835018,"sku":"169535844","price":24.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0595\/9755\/3738\/files\/4511844-3586363.jpg?v=1778735065","url":"https:\/\/dbzbooks.com\/products\/soul-jazz-records-presents-rebel-island-soul-under-the-influence-reggae-cd-pre-order","provider":"DBZ Books N Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
