Ska & Rocksteady

Before reggae, there was rocksteady. Before rocksteady, there was ska. The Jamaican music of the early-to-mid sixties is the foundation everything else is built on — urgent, rhythmically inventive, and still enormously fun to listen to. Toots and the Maytals, Desmond Dekker, Alton Ellis, the Skatalites — these records are the origin point. At Car Boot Soul Records our ska and rocksteady collection is carefully chosen and genuinely loved. All professionally cleaned and graded. Browse below.
