For this special episode, I sifted through hundreds of songs I felt fell into the “rare” category as most are unknown or ultra-rare 7” releases or as I call them, Rare Reggae Gems. Music left behind in the dust of time but not forgotten.
Part of the fun in discovering these artists becomes, who were they and where’d they go? For many, these questions go unanswered which makes for an intriguing listen - the mystery of the many who came, recorded and vanished.
