5.0 out of 5 stars Randy's 50th anniversary - buy it!, 1 Feb 2009
I bought this because I recalled some great tracks on Randy's in the 1970s when I was buying vinyl singles. I wasn't disappointed - the tunes on this double cd go back to R&B and some tracks are on other compilations but there are many great tunes on here which I haven't seen since I bought the 45s. The Carl Malcolm group of tunes was particularly welcome (if I could take just one of the cds to a desert island, it would be cd2). In short, if you like ska, rocksteday, or reaggae, you will not be disapointed, and for £10.98 you cannot go wrong.

4.0 out of 5 stars Superb overview of the best reggae record label of the early 70s...., 17 Nov 2008
By TCH (Cambs, UK.) - See all my reviews
The '17 North Parade' offshoot of the VP record label has been issuing excellent reggae revive albums and compilations for a few years now but this might be their masterpiece which is appropriate as VP records evolved from the Jamaican based Randy's record label which is the subject of this compilation. The package includes two full hour plus music CDs and a "bonus" DVD telling the story of Randy's. Whilst the DVD is a pretty basic affair the story it tells is fascinating for reggae buffs like myself and the wealth of talent involved is amazing for the cognoscenti including many luminaries from the golden age of reggae. The music CDs are just fantastic, CD1 showing the evolution of the music on Randy's through the 1960s from raw R&B inspired ska through rocksteady to early reggae with an extraordinary range of talent including the Maytals, Alton Ellis, Lord Creator, John Holt and even the Wailers. CD2 though is the real deal (and ultimately why I purchased this item) showing what Randy's were up to in their early 70's purple patch with a quite brilliant selection of instrumentals (inc. Pablo's immortal 'Java'), lovers (eg. Alton Ellis' 'Too Late' and Dennis Brown's 'Cheater') and Roots (eg. Senya's 'Children of the Ghetto), all of it good and most of it great. I must also note that the sound quality is straight from the top drawer with the music sounding like it was remastered from the original master tapes, a rarity in reggae reissues believe me. My only wish is that there is enough in the vaults for a second volume, hopefully including 'Rolling Stone' by the Psalms, 'Won't Come Easy' by Sweeny and the Wailers and 'Evil That You Do' by Roots and the Wailers.
