Repress! The Caltone collective of producers, musicians and artists was instrumental in creating some of the most beautiful, but less well known, rocksteady music ever made. The rocksteady explosion of 1966 provided the first truly seamless Jamaican music and its influence has subsequently proved to be timeless as its rhythms, bass lines and melodies have been returned to and recycled during each successive phase in reggae's development. At a time when the rest of the musical world was moving towards overblown and overlong concept albums with an extended cast list, Jamaica's musical fraternity were busy stripping their music down to the bare necessities with half a dozen players saying all that had to be said in two and a half minutes on a seven inch single release. Artists featured include Phil Pratt, Horace Andy, Charlie Ace, Tommy McCook, Ken Boothe, Larry Marshall a.m.o.
