Founding artist of Reggae, Desmond Dekker introduced the sound of Jamaica to the world with a string of international hits, his music featuring in the UK charts no fewer than seven times between 1967 and 1975 with the hits "007", "It Mek", "Pickney Gal", "You Can Get It If You Really Want", "Sing A Little Song" and the first Jamaican produced recording to top the UK 7” singles chart, "Israelites". All of these essential recordings feature on the 'Essential Artist Collection', which also includes the very best of his remaining work, with almost all tracks being Jamaican best sellers. All of these works, along with the very best of his remaining recordings from the ska, regular rock and reggae eras, are presented in the latest collection in Trojan’s new 'Essential Artist Collection' series. Released physically as a 50 track 2CD compilation, featuring extensive sleeve notes and imagery, the set pays tribute to the original king of reggae and superbly demonstrates the immense talent that set Desmond Dekker apart from his peers during the golden age of Jamaican music. TRACKLISTING Includes the hits: "Israelites", "007", "It Mek", "Pickney Gal", "You Can Get It If You Really Want", "Sing A Little Song", "Young Generation", "Live & Learn", "Mother Pepper"...
