Studio One Soul
Studio One Records was Jamaica's most important reggae label, home to legendary Studio One sessions that shaped rocksteady and early reggae. This Soul Jazz Records compilation brings together essential tracks from Studio One's vaults, spanning the late 1960s and early 70s. You'll hear the label's hallmark sound: tight horn sections, warm bass lines, and vocals that range from smooth soul singers to roots pioneers. These recordings capture reggae and rocksteady at the moment of transition, when American soul influence was meeting Jamaica's own developing sound. Studio One set the template that defined reggae for decades. A vital collection from the source.
