1. Jones Town Massaca
2. Jones Town Massaca (Apophenia Dubit)

The final part in the Caribbean reissue trilogy sails back to Kingston, Jamaica and unearths a little known track by Richard Ace

considered a one hit wonder with hisd Reggae Disco version of Staying Alive, Jones Town Massaca is some five minutes of pure horns, guitar, drum and bass grooves. A talented member of the Studio One family, playing keys and guitar in the likes of The Gladiators and Heptones throughout the 70s reggae heyday, it was Richard's self-titled solo album in 1979 and the mentioned cover of the world-wide phenomena from the Saturday Night Fever movie and soundtrack wonder that gave him a place in reggae's hall of fame.
