M-3 "Homeward Bound / Freddie McGregor" and M-5 "Jah Light / Cedric Brooks" are exclusive dubplate mixes, and M-11 "Instrumental / Brentford Rockers is a killer dub plate, well-known in the UK. Of course, this is the world's first release. M-7 "Chinese Beauty / Lennie Hibbert" is an oriental mood song, and Jackie Mittoo's accompaniment is also wonderful, as if it were teasing Hibbert's vibraphone.A new Rocka Shakka compilation of rare and quality top 70's tunes that Studio One collectors are said to be the last to reach.
