REPRESSED: THE SKATALITES “Platinum Ska” LP vinyl includes 3 bonus dubs!

Jamaican ska legends’ latest album “Platinum Ska” finally repressed on vinyl with three bonus dubs. The group has been at the forefront of ska music since the mid-’60s, and this studio album is their first recordings to follow the band’s 50th anniversary celebrations in 2014. The Skatalites built the foundation for Jamaican music, and was part of it’s evolution as it morphed from ska to rock steady then reggae, helping give birth to household names like Toots and The Maytals, Lee Perry, and of course Bob Marley & The Wailers. Since re-forming in the ’80s, The Skatalites have been through their share of transformation and have sadly seen most of the band’s original members pass on. Each of today’s existing members were hand-picked by the band’s original members to play, and they continue to hold down the tradition by performing at some of the most prestigious festivals around the world. Two of the tracks included on “Platinum Ska” feature original 60’s era drummer Lloyd Knibb (who passed away in 2011), plus it captures alto sax player Lester Sterling and vocalist Doreen Shaffer, the last two living original Skatalites members. The album was mixed in Mali and also includes guest appearances by legendary Malian musicians Assaba Dramé and Madou Sidiki Diabaté. Simply put, “Platinum Ska” is a testament to some of the greatest Jamaican musicians the world has ever seen, and Jump Up is proud to preserve this legacy once again with a limited vinyl edition. Limited repress on metallic marble and classic black vinyl.

Jamaican legend WINSTON FRANCIS 1969 classics “THE BREAK” b/w “You’re Cheating Heart” 7 inch on MR FIX IT + SUSAN CADOGAN “I Don’t Want Anybody But You” 7 inch

In November 2014 Chicago and Los Angeles were lucky to have showcases with one of the sweetest soul voices in Jamaican music history, Studio One legend WINSTON “Mr Fix It” FRANCIS. The 60’s hitmaker was one of Coxson Dodd’s biggest singers, and his 1969 “Mr Fix It” LP featured the hit songs “Too Experienced”, “Same Old Song”, “Fools Fall In Love” plus the title track. His second album “California Dreaming” continued the tradition of soulful reggae covers, including “Yester Me Yester You” , “Groovy Situation”, “Always Something There To Remind Me” and the hit Mamas & The Papas tune that named the album. In between these albums WINSTON would release two tunes that would drive collectors crazy 50+ years later – “THE BREAK” under the moniker BOB MELODY, and “YOUR CHEATING HEART” – a duet with LLOYD ROBINSON. Both these original 7? singles fetch INSANE amounts on eBay – yet strangely both tunes have never appeared on reissue. We’ve worked directkt with WINSTON FRANCIS himself to issue these nuggets on 45 once again. Black vinyl. Not to be outdone is a new DJ limited edition 7? single from lovers rock pioneer Susan Cadogan! A few years ago we released the extended vinyl version of her latest project produced by Mitch Giro of KING KONG 4 / KING APPARATUS fame. This new 7? single featured two brand new tracks produced by Mitch – a gentle ska groover called “I Don’t Want Anybody But You” b/w a cool rock steady ae jewel called “The Girl Who Cried Over You”. Originally issused as a limited to 100 hand-stamped 45, we’ve not issued the 45 with full artwork and on beautiful white vinyl, limited to 300 copies. (Susan is part of the 7 inch subscription) – each 7 inch $10 get both for $15

Repressed! CHRIS MURRY COMBO “Buckle Up” LP vinyl

Chris Murray is a unique figure on today’s music scene, a Canadian born singer-songwriter and guitarist who works primarily in ska & reggae music. As leader of Toronto-based rock-pop-ska powerhouse King Apparatus, Chris developed the reputation as a dynamic frontman and one of the genre’s finest songwriters. Over the group’s eight year tenure, King Apparatus released two-full length albums, shot eight videos and toured coast to coast non-stop, sharing stages with virtually every top act including the Mighty Mighty Bosstones, and The Skatalites. Upon the band’s breakup, Murray relocated to Los Angeles and emerged as a solo artist, releasing his debut solo album “4 Track Adventures of Venice Shoreline Chris” on legendary imprint Moon Ska NYC. Murray has pioneered a low-fi, intimate singer/songwriter approach to modern ska music. His co-writing and producing credits in various capacities appear on work from the Planet Smashers, the Slackers, Stubborn All-Stars and the Specials’ Neville Staple. Chris Murray tours non-stop, both solo as well as with the Chris Murray Combo, performing throughout North America, Europe, Japan, Korea, and South America. From jamming with The Specials in a basement club, to recording an album with The Slackers, and trading songs on an acoustic guitar with 72-year-old boogie-ska pioneer Laurel Aitken, life has led Chris Murray down a path to the very roots of ska and reggae music. The Chris Murray Combo’s first album “Why So Rude” was released way back in 2008 – we would have to say it was one of our faves of that time. Like his earlier solo records on Moon NYC and Asian Man, it was stripped down and raw, super authentic traditional 60s ska just within honrs. “BUCKLE UP” picks up where “WHY SO RUDE” left off…with the usual top-shelf songwriting backed by a simple and organic drum/bass/acoustic guitar reggae & ska vibe. Songs like “Anchor” and “Forget Your Love” are perfect summer jams while tracks such as “Little Bit Of Love” and “Ain’t No Joke Bein’ Broke” will have you looking for some room in your house to dance! We’ve loved CHRIS MURRAY’S music since the late 80s (side note KING APPARATUS crashed in my college apartment in 1991), we are SO PROUD to be the first to get some full-length vinyl out for him! Back in stock on RED vinyl!  $20
