Two LPs of early singles from “The Godfather of Ska”, Laurel Aitken. Born in Cuba of mixed Cuban and Jamaican descent, Aitken was cutting mento and boogie hits by the mid-50s, including some of the earliest tracks ever produced by Island Records legend Chris Blackwell. Rege Dege Ding culls together mento and ska tracks recorded between 1958 and 1962 for labels like Kalypso and Blue Beat. An absolutely essential collection, feel that boogie in your bones!
