Pearls produced by Coxsone Dodd for Studio One, Bamboo, Coxsone in 1969
Coxsone Dodd’s 1969 Studio One/Bamboo/Coxsone cut Pearls pulls together a small but memorable four-track set, with Alton Ellis’s title tune leading the way and Sound Dimension and Carey Johnson’s Call 1143 adding another key Studio One side. The lineup also reaches beyond the original year with Johnny Osbourne’s Love Jah So and Rolando Alphonso’s Flats, which gives the release a wider span across the label’s catalogue. Studio One’s role here is central, and that connection to Dodd’s classic production style helps explain why these vintage roots and rocksteady-era cuts continue to circulate so well.
