Errol Mattis steps in with “So Lonely,” adding a soulful touch to the riddim. Tony Corbin’s “Let Me Show” follows, offering smooth vocals and heartfelt lyrics. Corbin is recognized for his contributions to reggae in the UK, including his work with the group Tradition, which achieved success in the late 1970s and early 1980s. The anthology continues with Sandy Starr’s “He’s Got Me,” a song that brings a gentle, melodic presence.

Junior Platinum delivers “Girl Look Good,” while Winston Fritz’s “Write a Story” brings storytelling to the forefront. Sharon Anderson’s “Heavens Door” and Andrew Sloley’s “Groove” each add their own unique style, before Delroy Melody closes the set with “School Girl.” Delroy Melody is respected for his work in the roots reggae era, with tracks like “Ease Up the Pressure” marking his place in reggae history.
