Desmond Dekker & the Aces: 007 Shanty Town (Music On Vinyl 180g, Colored Vinyl) Vinyl LP

Desmond Dekker, along with his backing group the Aces (Wilson James and Easton Barrington Howard), recorded some of his most famous songs. Their debut album 007 (Shanty Town) features the same - named single that made Dekker Jamaican music's first 'international' superstar, hitting #14 on the UK charts. You can hear the ska music from the mid - 60s evolving into the rocksteady sound. This is the starting point before Dekker became an international star with hits like 'Israelites' (1968) and 'It Miek' (1969). This limited edition of 750 individually numbered copies comes on 180g magenta colored vinyl, originally released on Trojan Records in 1967 and re - issued by Music On Vinyl in 2023.

To use this vinyl LP, first, make sure your turntable is clean and in good working condition. Gently place the record on the turntable, center it, and then lower the tonearm onto the record. You can enjoy the amazing ska and rocksteady music. When handling the record, always hold it by the edges to avoid getting fingerprints on the playing surface. After use, carefully put the record back into its sleeve to protect it from dust and scratches. Store it in a cool, dry place, standing upright to prevent warping. This is a limited - edition item, so take extra care to keep it in great condition for years of enjoyment.
