Christmas: the time of the year when thoughts turn to fun, family and jollity, and of course reggae! Yes, despite the music's long association with blues skies and summer, the festive season is of course also a time of great celebration in the Caribbean and from the 1960s to the 80s almost every Jamaican producer of note marked the holiday by releasing a seasonal recording performed by a leading recording artist. And of all the Kingston's major music makers, none proved more committed to celebrating Christmas than Joe Gibbs, who between 1978 and 1982 released two albums, largely comprising medleys that featured such renowned performers as Dennis Brown, Horace Andy, Jacob Miller, Culture, June Lodge. The Mighty Diamonds, Trinity and Sly & Robbie. Both these celebratory collections feature on the first disc on this fun-filled set, which also features popular singles from Kodak &Liza and Home T-4. Disc Two showcases two more giants of the Jamaican music scene in John Holt and Yellowman, whose respective long-players are arguably the best-selling reggae Christmas single artist LPs ever to see issue. So, for all those tired of hearing the same old records and seeking to spice up their holiday with some irresistible Caribbean sounds, this 2CD set, jam-packed with festive favourites performed by some of Jamaica's finest is a must. 100% guaranteed to have you and all the family skanking around the Christmas tree
