Roots

Roots reggae is the sound of conviction — heavy bass, one-drop rhythm, and lyrics that mean something. Burning Spear, Culture, the Congos, Misty in Roots, Steel Pulse — the roots tradition produced some of the most powerful and spiritually charged music ever recorded. At Car Boot Soul Records our roots collection spans the Jamaican originals and the UK roots scene, vinyl and CDs, all professionally cleaned and graded. This is serious music for serious listeners.
