The Best of Reggae - Original Stars - Original Hits (K-tel NE 498 UK) (2021 Doctor Bird Expanded Edition) (2CD) (1973)
ReplyDeleteIt's great news that Cherry Red's Doctor Bird label recently released this best selling TV advertised album from the 70s on CD.
In fact, this is the very first time any K-tel, Ronco, Arcade, etc. TV advertised album from the 70s has ever been officially released on CD.
K-tel originally released 'The Best of Reggae' double album set in the UK in 1973.
Doctor Bird have expanded the original album to include a second disc of 27 bonus tracks, but unfortunately two tracks from the original album are missing: 'Wonderful World, Beautiful People' by Jimmy Cliff and 'Take Me Home, Country Roads' by Toots & the Maytals, plus the running order has been changed in a few places.
This reissue has now been corrected and fully restored to its original 30 track compilation with the correct running order on disc 1, plus the second Doctor Bird bonus disc of 27 tracks.
The second disc contains a few tracks which have never been released on CD before, so makes for a very interesting compilation.
