Description

ONE OF THE MANY GREAT THINGS ABOUT LIVING AND COLLECTING RECORDS HERE IN SOUTH FLORIDA IS THAT THERE IS A LARGE JAMAICAN COMMUNITY HERE, SO EVERY YEAR I SEEM TO RUN ACROSS A COUPLE OF GREAT EARLY REGGAE AND SKA RECORD COLLECTIONS WHICH ORIGINALLY BELONGED TO FOLKS WHO LIVED IN JAMAICA DURING THE 1960s AND 1970s AND WHO EMIGRATED HERE. IT IS NOW TIME TO OFFER SOME REGGAE FROM TWO SUCH COLLECTIONS!! WE'LL BEGIN WITH SOME GOOD LPs, THEN WE WILL GO TO SOME 45s FROM THE 1960s AND 1970s, AND FINISH WITH SOME VERY RARE 10" ITEMS AND EARLY REGGAE 12" DISCO SINGLES FROM THE 1970s. I WILL KEEP GOING WITH REGGAE OFFERINGS AS LONG AS THE BUYERS KEEP BIDDING!! I WILL BE HAPPY TO HOLD YOUR PURCHASES UNTIL YOU ARE FINISHED BIDDING IN ORDER TO COMBINE SHIPPING AND MINIMIZE YOUR SHIPPING COSTS, BUT AS MY REGGAE AUCTIONS WILL BE ONGOING FOR AWHILE, AND AS MOST BUYERS ARE NOW USING PAYPAL TO PAY FOR THEIR PURCHASES, I WOULD LIKE TO HAVE EACH INDIVIDUAL PURCHASE PAID FOR SHORTLY AFTER OF THE END OF THE AUCTION, I WILL ACCUMULATE YOUR PURCHASES WITH YOUR NAME ON THEM, AND WHEN YOU ARE FINISHED BIDDING WE WILL COMPUTE THE COMBINED SHIPPING CHARGES WHICH YOU CAN PAY WHENEVER YOU ARE READY TO HAVE ME SHIP EVERYTHING. JUST LET ME KNOW AFTER YOU WIN AN ITEM WHETHER YOU WOULD LIKE ME TO SHIP THAT ITEM IMMEDIATELY, OR WHETHER YOU WOULD LIKE TO HAVE THE ITEM HELD FOR COMBINED SHIPPING LATER.

This record appears to be a Jamaican pressing - The distributor of this LP is listed with a Kingston, Jamaica address on the back cover - but the label lists a Miami FL address for Allied Productions, the parent company of Hot Disk Records. Hot Disk Records labels are white with red and black print. Matrix numbers are hand etched in the dry runout areas; A-side matrix number is LP. 506-2006 A; B-side matrix number is LP 506-2006 B.
