The Gladiators - Trenchtown Mix Up (1976)

So, I went to Sweden: Stockholm and Göteborg for a week. That's why I kind of disappeared. But here I am, I am appearing again. Let's move on with a very fine roots reggae album, that is quite well-known in the reggae scene, but therefore still too unknown off course, because reggae albums don't quite surface outside the reggae field. I will post some more obscure albums in the upcoming weeks, because that was what I wanted to do with this summer, but I love this album so much at the moment, that the only thing I can do is just post it.

Very, very high quality reggae, definitely one of the four or five real reggae classics, besides Bob Marley. The others being Marcus Garvey by Burning Spear (already posted), Satta Massagana by the Abyssinians (stay tuned), and Right Time by the Mighty Diamonds (I think I've posted it). Enjoy this album, because most of the time I post more unknown reggae, but one has to know where to got it from as well! Also: listen to Thief in the Night, at the moment my favourite reggae tune.
