U-Roy was a true reggae pioneer, dubbed The Originator for good reason. Bursting onto the Jamaican scene in the earliest 1970s, he pioneered the vocal approach called "toasting," which in addition to branching out Jamaican music into a new era, was also heavily influential on an American genre in its infancy: rapping. Presented on black vinyl with an 18 x 24" poster of the glorious, ganja-drenched cover art, it's the perfect chance to revisit one of the more underrated voices in Jamaican musical history.
