A righteous batch of 70s reggae tracks, all produced by Niney The Observer – including 15 tracks that haven't been in print since their original Jamaican release back in the day! The cover and title are a play on a famous American film of the late 60s – but the music here is pure Kingston, and has Niney working with some of the top talents of the scene, and as a lead act on his own – serving up both instrumentals and vocal tunes, all in a wonderfully soulful mix of modes! There's definitely some key classics on the set, but those are also mixed with some great rare numbers too – a rich array of cuts that were originally only issued as 7" singles, presented here with great sound and very detailed notes. There's a whopping 49 tracks in all – with work from Big Youth, Earth & Stone, Ken Boothe, Sang Hugh, The Observers, Hubert Lee, Winston Wright, Delroy Wilson, Denis Brown, U Roy, Glassford Manning, Junior Delgado, Roman Stewart, and Niney himself!

A heady batch of classics from Toots & The Maytals – work from the rocksteady years that really helped set the tone for countless reggae work in years to come – and which also helped Jamaican music really reach out at a more global level – especially on the London scene, where the group really found great fame! The set's full of seminal cuts from this wonderful group – and the package even includes a few dubs of vocal numbers, and some lesser-known gems mixed in with the hits. Titles include "54 46 That's My Number", "Alidina", "Bim Today Bam Tomorrow", "Do The Reggay", "Johnny Cool Man", "Just Tell Me", "Monkey Man", "Night & Day", "Oh Yeah", "Don't Trouble", "I Need Your Love", "Image Get A Kick", and "I Shall Be Free".
