Well, that's not a bargain, for sure ( unlike many other revive albums on that label) ! I have the first two discs and they are well worth checking out if you don't have the 7"s already ( i don't mean those dreadful represses from some time ago, a real shame !). I had some of them and most of the others on tapes recorded by friends. Now i wouldn't mind to see more of such early dancehall sounds available again (productions by Don Mais and Lewis & Marshall, for instance).

20 GBP is outrageously expensive, I expect it will be priced at around $20 in the US which is much more reasonable for a double-CD set (US's Amazon has it priced at $22 and I figure Ernie's will probably offer it around $16-18). You'lal have to pay shipping but it'll drop the cost substantially if you really do want to pick up the set . . . if you really want to get them on the cheap, wait a month or two for the US government to drive the dollar into the ground responding to this financial crisis. I guess I'd better buy stuff from British and European labels while I still can afford it . . .

Pricing issues aside, these look like excellent and very welcome reissues compilations. Aside from dodgy Sonic Sounds compilations this material has essentially been unavailable on CD.

Virgin reissued that Sonic compilation and it sounded fine. VP also put out Total Recall 6 based on Phangs work.

My question is, have they got the right version of Money Move this time? Both previous compilations inclued the recut for London Records, not the Powerhouse original.

Wow, a cool new series gets put out (at a time when reggae re-releases seem to be in a slump), and all everybody here can do is complain about the price, say that the stuff has already been released, or say that you have it already. Cha!

Like Fish, I am looking forward to these. They will make a welcome companion to VP's excellent King Jammys sets from last year.

they all look boss its just the price that i find a problem.
I have never complained about which tracks or versions are on the re-releases.
I have never been that anal.
isnt that what the skip is for on the cd player.

to get 4 sets all ready to go as a series is very commendable

Have you heard the new issues Lankou? I'd be interested in what exactly athe problems are with the sound. The Dennis Brown set was a real mess apparently - very poor sound restoration and compressed bass. is it the same with these issues?

Yes, judging from the 2 first discs, there is a restoration problem and yes, the bass does sound compressed in a strange way, at least to these ears. After hearing the tune on my stereo , i put some on mp3 format and i get the same sort of sound definition when it comes to bass : it sound quite muffled, dull, flat and a little distorted. Another person who is well versed in sound and studio thing (a producer) told me the same thing. I tend to be quite lenient when it comes to sound quality but we are talking 80's music here, not obscure rocksteady or ska forgotten gems !
