Various Artists: Jamaica to Toronto: Soul, Funk & Reggae 1967-1974 (Various Artists)

1. Product Details

In the late 1960s, Canada's largest city was musically booming as Caribbean immigrants made Toronto their new home. The finest ska, rocksteady, and reggae recording artists of the era-Studio One, Treasure Isle, and Trojan Records originators-simply did what came naturally to them. One by one, they hit the studio and captured some of the toughest tunes this side of Kingston. Collectively, they broke down racial and cultural barriers to form an unprecedented and little-known Canadian reggae community. Jamaica to Toronto: Soul, Funk, & Reggae 1967-1974 details this crucial sonic migration.
