Description

Issued in 1969 by Doctor Bird Records early on the companys Pyramid subsidiary, The Israelites came hot on the heels of Desmond Dekkers international smash hit of the same name.

This faithful reproduction of the original UK issue has been mastered from the best available analogue source and is pressed on the highest quality vinyl.

Over the coming months, further classic albums are set to see issue, with each album exhaustively promoted via Trojans website, Facebook page, Twitter, YouTube channel and mailing list, with reviews actively solicited from all the significant periodicals and sites.
