about

The astonishing take of previously unpublished Rocksteady - this record reveals new facts about Studio One’s Ska and Rocksteady!

A few years after the Skatalites recorded the famous “Freedom Sounds”, the band had reconstructed as the Soul Brothers and this is the astonishing, previously unpublished take of them playing the Rocksteady version. By the look of the master-tape, it has never even been planned to be released as a single and it was kept especially for the LP release, which might have meant to be the Soul Brothers version of the Skatalites’ iconic “Ska Authentic” album. This seriously rare recording is a must-check for everyone from the beginners in Jamaican music to the Ska masters. As expected, we may never be able to measure the depth of the foundation studio.
