The Wailers – Back Out / Can't You See (7")
€12.90*
Jamwax Records proudly presents this historic reissue, featuring two
timeless tracks from The Wailers’ legendary album The Best of The
Wailers: "Can't You See" and "Back Out". While these songs have long
been cherished as classics, this marks the first time they have ever
been available on a 7-inch vinyl single. Even though some books about
Bob Marley & The Wailers list them as having been released on
7-inch, I have never seen a copy for sale. Produced by the visionary
Leslie Kong with co-producer Warwick Lyn, the album captures The Wailers
at their soulful, raw best. These songs predate the group’s later
partnership with Lee Perry and Island Records, offering a purer, more
unembellished sound. The harmonies are flawless, the arrangements simple
yet deeply powerful, and the performances utterly timeless. "Back Out"
highlights Bob Marley's unmistakable voice, brimming with the confidence
and charisma that would later make him a global icon. Bunny Wailer and
Peter Tosh's harmonies add depth to a track that perfectly embodies the
spirit of early reggae. "Can't You See" showcases Peter Tosh on lead
vocals, supported by the sublime harmonies of Bob Marley and Bunny
Wailer. These recordings, crafted with a four-track setup and featuring
some of Jamaica’s finest musicians—including Mickey ‘Boo’ Richards on
drums, Jackie Jackson on bass, and Winston Wright on organ—are testament
to a moment in time when reggae was still raw, revolutionary, and
evolving.
Bob & Marcia / Marcia Griffiths – Young Gifted And Black / Working To The Top (7")
€12.90*
Bob & Marcia's Young Gifted & Black album on Trojan came back in
1970 and was produced by Harry J. It included the title track, which
was a UK top five hit that has remained a favourite. The cool and breezy
groove carries a potent socio-political message and lo-fi drums that
lodge deep. It is reissued here on anew 45rpm that is featured alongside
Marcia Griffiths' soulful 'Working To The Top' which mixes authentic
reggae and slightly more swaggering ska vibes and heartfelt, steady
groove. Together, these tracks take it back to a golden age of reggae
and are perfect for loud plays on sound systems this summer.
