Freddie McGregor, a key figure among the new - generation Studio One artists, was influenced by the late Sugar Minott's groundbreaking work on 'Live Loving' in 1977. 'Bobby Bobylon' marked Freddie's debut album for the reggae institution, released 14 years after his first appearance on the label in 1965 with 'Fredie & Fitsy'. His 'Bobby Bobylon' single, a re - interpretation of Jackie Mittoo's 'One Step Beyond', was a huge hit in 1979, leading to this Clement Dodd - produced LP. This album gathers some powerful earlier singles like 'Rastaman Camp' and a reworked 'Revolutionist', along with fresh takes on Studio One classics. This deluxe remastered double - vinyl set is a must - have. LP1 holds the original album, while LP2 offers bonus tracks, rare singles, and extended mixes. It comes in a gatefold sleeve with rare photos and detailed liner notes. The music is from the Studio One label in 2018. Highly recommended.


To enjoy this double vinyl LP, first, make sure your record player is in good working condition. Gently place the vinyl on the turntable, and use the tonearm to drop the needle at the start of the groove. When you're done listening, lift the tonearm carefully and return it to its rest. Store the vinyl in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent warping. Always handle the vinyl by the edges to avoid fingerprints and scratches. The gatefold sleeve is not just for looks; it helps protect the vinyl, so keep it in good shape. Enjoy the rich reggae sounds of Freddie McGregor's Bobby Bobylon album!
