About This Item
Back in print (black vinyl) and first time on CD in over 20 years! / Soul Jazz Records' 200% Dynamite! Set the benchmark for reggae meets funk compilations that has never been bettered. Jam-packed with reggae tunes that crossed-over to become dancefloor hits such as Tenor Saw's sound boy anthem 'Ring the Alarm,' K.C. White's classic cut of the seminal 'No, No, No' and Augustus Pablo's 'Rockers Rock', 200% Dynamite explores the links between reggae, jazz, funk and soul. Featured here are serious funk and rocksteady tunes from the likes of The Skatalites and Johnny Osbourne through to Jamaican jazz from masters such as Tommy McCook and Byron Lee, as well as some serious dub from the likes of Augustus Pablo, King Tubby and Jackie Mittoo.
