Limited vinyl LP pressing, released to coincide with the re-launching of the classic Reggae Label Trojan Records. Trojan is a British record label founded in 1968. They have become one of the most influential Reggae Labels of all-time, specializing in Ska, Rocksteady, Reggae and Dub music. Following the end of World War II, the two most popular forms of indigenous Caribbean music in Jamaica were Calypso and Mento. Released in the early 60's through mid-70's, the irresistible sounds featured in this collection illustrate there is much more to the music of the Caribbean than simply Reggae. Features Lord Kitchener, Lord Power & Trenton Spence, Lord Creator, Marva Moore & The Gaysters and others.

This by far is one of the premier skate shops online. The selection and customer service is second to none. I have ordered multiple times and am never disappointed. They take care in packaging and making sure you are satisfied with your order.

After buying fake bones bearings off eBay from a different seller a long time ago I was skeptical on buying any more bearings online but I wanted to give eBay another chance and give this company a try. Shipping was fast and the bearings I received were definitely real this time. Definitely would shop online here again in the future.
