What's New

2013-11-18

Latest update contains loads of additions and revisions that have accrued over the past three months.

 

Special thanks to Greg Chekroun , Marc Grobman, Johann Lindberg, Markus Vogel  and Nicholas Potier for substantial contributions recently, special gratitude to Nicholas who has expanded our date boundaries by detailing the Coxsone issues and reissues from the late 80s.

 

Often overlooked is RKR's research into the origins of many Jamaican tunes, a surprising number of which are cover tunes. There are now over 7000 attributions. Those interested in the originals can hear a lot of them here:
