these recordings were made when sir coxsone ruled the dancehalls of kingston in the late 1950s and early 1960s with his number one downbeat sound system, where songs were tested out on dub plates at a dance to see a crowd's reaction - the most popular of which were then released commercially.

featuring early material by roland alphonso, don drummond, tommy mccook (all of whom would form the skatalites), toots & the maytals, young singers such as bob marley & the wailers, delroy wilson and owen gray, all captured in their formative days. the music here spans a wealth of styles - jamaican rhythm & blues, jazz, gospel, proto-ska, rastafarian - all of which were drawn upon to create the future sounds of jamaican reggae that sir coxsone and the artists featured would soon create at studio one, which first opened its doors in 1963.
