I just happened to notice your note on the post just above that you like the older Jamaican music and thought I might note that you might look for recordings being put out by the Studio One label. These are collections of vintage recordings from Studio One, one of the most influential Jamaican studios of the '60's, run by a man named Clement S. Dodd. I've seen quite a few interesting collections of this stuff out there by folks like Horace Andy, Ernest Ranglin, early Burning Spear, Delroy Wilson, etc. and even own a couple that are quite nice. The Trojan label seems to do a good job at keeping that era of Jamaican music alive as well and has numerous box sets that would probably serve as good additions to any collection.
