Back by popular demand! Further explorations in heartbreak rocksteady and Jamaican soul from the 60s and 70s. Some known, some obscure, all about longing and quiet desperation. A vinyl mix for late nights, slow dancing, and reflection. All from original G- vinyl, brought from my various trips to Jamaica.
Enjoy! 💔🔈Link in bio #rocksteady #jamaicansoul #studio1 #reggae #northernsoul
