1xLP Vinyl – JD003 (Limited Edition, Reissue)

Founded in 1975, The Revolutionaries were primarily the house band of the famous Channel One Studios founded by Joseph ‘Jo Jo’ Hoo Kim in the Jamaican capital Kingston. The Revolutionaries’ rhythm section changed reggae, their style, called Rockers, was more aggressive, more mechanical and emphasised the off-beat. When we think of reggae today, we have the Rockers style in our ears.

In 1980 they recorded Black Ash Dub, with Sly & Robbie as rhythm section, completely produced and written by Jah Thomas, mixed by Prince Jammy and The Scientist. Big names in reggae. The album was originally released on Sanctuary Records and re-issued on 7 March 2025 on Jamdung, a sub-label of Cinedelic.
