DESCRIPTION:
2x12" Reggae LP Repressed on Yellow Vinyl - New 2026 Edition of 600% Dynamite, part of Soul Jazz Records classic compilation series of Jamaican music, featuring killer reggae in all styles - ska, soul, rocksteady, dancehall, funk and dub.
Originally released in 2003 this album has been out of print for nearly 20 years making it one of the most-collectible of Soul Jazz Records’ Dynamite! Series.
Newly remastered and relicensed for 2026, the album is packed with dancefloor classics and non-stop reggae anthems such as Tenor Saw’s ‘Golden Hen’, Johnny Osbourne’s ‘Buddy Bye’, Dennis Brown’s ‘Wolf & Shepard’ and Sister Nancy’s ’Transport Connection' alongside hard-to-find cuts by Tall T and the Touchers, The Interns, Tetrack and others, making the album a superlative mix of well-known classics and rarities.
New tracks on this edition includes the super heavyweight Interns ‘ Nothing is Impossible’, wicked rocksteady with the Bleechers ‘Come Into My Parlour' and tough roots from Junior Byles ‘Long Way’ and more.
From the funky rocksteady of Dennis Brown to the lovers rock of Sandra Reid, and from the sublime digital roots of Tetrack to the dancehall styles of Johnny Osbourne and Papa San - it’s all here, reggae in all styles! 600% Dynamite is the next instalment in a series that became a who’s who of Reggae music.
First issued in the early 2000s and now resurfacing for 2026 via Soul Jazz Records, this compilation still feels like a hand pressed to the small of your back, guiding you into the crowd. The selections move across decades of Jamaican recording history without pausing to explain themselves. Tenor Saw's 'Golden Hen' snaps with youthful hunger, Johnny Osbourne's 'Buddy Bye' leans into swagger, and Dennis Brown's 'Wolf & Leopard' carries a darker weight in its gait. New additions deepen the picture, from the Interns' stubborn insistence on 'Nothing Is Impossible' to Junior Byles' slow-burning resolve on 'Long Way'. Nothing here sits politely. The tracks jostle, sweat, flirt and argue, forming a living map of sound systems, dances and nights that stretch long past sense.

Last FM Information on Various Artists
Please note the information is done on a artist keyword match and data is provided by LastFM.
Warning! Deleting this artist may remove other artists and scrobbles from your library - please handle this with caution!
Note: You can view albums tagged as 'Various Artists' in your library here.
The term Various Artists is used in the recording industry to designate releases featuring contributions from multiple performers. It commonly appears on compilation albums or collaborative recordings where no single artist attribution applies. On digital platforms such as Last.fm, tracks may be listed under this designation when individual artist information is missing or incomplete in metadata, resulting in automatic grouping under the generic label.
In some cases, singles credited to Various Artists are issued for charitable purposes, particularly when performers collaborate under a collective project name. Examples include Band Aid with the song "Do They Know It’s Christmas?" and USA for Africa with "We Are the World".
Various Artists is also used as a performance alias by German musician Torsten Pröfrock, founder of the DIN label. In addition to this name, he has recorded under several other aliases, including Dynamo, Erosion, Resilent, and Traktor. He has collaborated with Robert Henke and has been a member of Monolake since 2004.
The name was also used by a short-lived punk band formed in Bristol by brothers Jonjo and Robin Key, originally from Birmingham. Other members were involved simultaneously in Art Objects, which later evolved into The Blue Aeroplanes; the Key brothers also contributed as songwriters and participants in that project. After the group disbanded, the brothers formed Either / Or.
The designation Various Artists is also commonly applied to musical theater soundtracks, reflecting recordings that feature multiple cast members or ensemble performances within a single track.
