With their first Dancehall compilation, Soul Jazz had to include many of the obligatory, consensus selections (ie. “Murder She Wrote”) to set the stage. Don’t get me wrong, it’s still one of the best dancehall comps ever. Soul Jazz has hit their stride on volume 2, stretching deeper into the genre for a selection that will have all the 7″ collectors, spliff-heads and trustafarians buzzing (selections by Blood & Fire founder Steve Barrow). Newly repressed on triple vinyl featuring 22 tracks and full liner notes. Recommended.
