This album is fully remastered and relicensed for RSD 24!From the early days of Bob Marley and The Wailers (whose striking sharp-suited Rude Boy style appears on the front cover) through to the classic 1970s Jamaican films 'The Harder They Come' and 'Rockers', Rude Boys have been synonymous with Jamaican Reggae culture.This Jamaican Rude Boy anti-establishment attitude and stylish attire was later adopted by bands such as The Clash (in the film Rude Boy) as well as The Specials, Madness, Selector and others in the Two-Tone era that swept across the UK at the end of the 1970s.The album features classic tracks from Studio One featuring Jamaica's finest singers and groups such as The Wailers, John Holt, the Wailing Souls and Dennis Brown alongside super-rare hard-to-find tracks from artists such as Mr Foundation, Dudley Sibley and Jim Brown. Driving Ska and Rocksteady rhythms, classic singers, killer horn lines, great Rude Boy themed-songs, all recorded under Clement 'Sir Coxsone' Dodd's supervision at the legendary Studio One. With musical backing comes from the legendary in-house bands - The Skatalites, The Sound Dimension, Soul Vendors and Soul Defenders - this is rightly one of the most in-demand Studio One releases that Soul Jazz Records have ever released.
