Lovers Rock

Description

The first subgenre of British reggae to achieve "international" success and influence Jamaican music, "Lovers Rock" was a dominant component of the UK music scene in the mid-70s and 80s. This romantically themed genre was heavily influenced by American R&B styles and the Jamaican rocksteady sound of the 60s. This collection includes the most popular and influential recordings of the style. Includes 60 tracks on 3CD format and 25 tracks on 2LP format. Includes classics such as Janet Kay's "Silly Games", Carroll Thompson's "Hopelessly In Love", Brown Sugar's "I'm In Love With A Dreadlocks", Marcia Aitken's "I'm Still In Love With You", Louisa Mark's "Keep It Like It Is", Sugar Minott's "We've Got A Good Thing Going", Dennis Brown's "Money In My Pocket", Gregory Isaacs' "Night Nurse", Freddie McGregor's "When Push Comes To Shove" and John Holt's "Ghetto Queen".
