Various Artists – Rude Boy Scorchers

Description

Kingston Sounds presents a selection of classic cuts celebrating the rude boy subculture, the aesthetic of the sharp suits, thin ties and pork pie hats that emerged from the Jamaican capital and adopted by British youth in the Sixties and Seventies. It was always the music that best communicated this aesthetic, and fourteen ska and rocksteady classics are gathered on ‘Rude Boy Scorchers’, including songs from Derrick Morgan, The Heptones, Rico Rodriguez, Delroy Wilson and many more.
