Now available on limited edition 140g vinyl. In 1983 all of the original Skatalites (minus trombonist Don Drummond) reformed to appear at Sunsplash in Jamaica where they supported Bob Marley. While they were preparing for the show, they recorded ten tracks at Music Mountain studio under the guidance of producer /promoter Tony Owens. This is the first time any of this material has been heard before. Includes tribute song Big Trombone with vocals by Lord Tamano (Wareika Hill Sounds).
