Jamaican rocksteady and reggae master Derrick Harriott leads The Crystalites through instrumental roots reggae grooves originally recorded in the late sixties and seventies, now resurrected via this 2017 Doctor Bird reissue. These are rare session recordings capturing Harriott's meticulous studio arrangements and his skilled collaborators at work—tight, propulsive rhythms anchored by melodic guitar and organ lines that feel both relaxed and inventive. The music bridges rocksteady's smoother sensibilities with reggae's emerging rhythmic sophistication, representing Jamaican studio musicianship at its most confident. This collection is genuine treasure for roots reggae enthusiasts, offering deep session work from the foundational era that influenced generations of reggae musicians. Original recordings from this period remain difficult to find; these reissues make essential material finally accessible.
