The Wailers - Songs of Redemption

Songs of Redemption aka The Buffalo Soldier Tapes, is a collection of the 7" & 12" single releases from the Trilogy Sessions. All of these singles are alternates from the album versions. Even the slightest differences that the untrained ear might not capture off hand, but with comparison you'll find the difference within mixes (like So Much Trouble in the World).

This here is a little bonus for the long awaited sequel to Black Survival '79, Uprising Confrontation '80. You have the demos, now you have the opportunity to own the alternate single mixes. Think of it as the extended piece of the Trilogy Session's puzzle. This 2-CD set also includes an old Wailers classic performed live in Jamaica, 1979. This was the ONLY performance of this re-released classic, never again was it performed anywhere else! Luckily it was bootlegged for I&I to remaster to throw into this awesome collection. Enjoy. JAH Bless.

Gregory Isaacs - Cool Ruler Returns! 1984-1986

Simply in memory of one of the greatest Reggae singers of all time, I&I would like to present a compilation of Mr. Isaacs' best in his underdog years. This compilation focuses mainly after his two successful albums on Island Records Night Nurse (1982) & Out Deh! (1983).

I&I was reading a biography one day about Gregory, and it seems like his discography history was correct, however it seems like they have forgotten about the releases from 1984-1986 (with exceptions of the popular 1985 release, Private Beach Party). No mention of releases of Easy (1984), All I Have Is Love, Love, Love (1986), or even a true Reggae fans favorite release with the Prince of Reggae, Dennis Brown, Judge Not (1984). Well TH3MO3M3NT is here to help jog memories of those who forgotten (or maybe never heard) the up-full rydims like "A, Miner", the seductive lyrics like "Don't Say No", the upbeat tempo off tracks such as "When I Needed a Friend" with the help with some of your favorites off of the 1985 release Private Beach Party.

Cool Ruler Returns is the perfect compilation for that Gregory Isaacs fan who would like to advance out of his Island Record releases, to later yet still classical releases. The majority of these albums were never re-released on CD, making it even harder for younger fans to obtain knowledge of these releases. Some were released on CD, however, were not released in major numbers of quantity therefore making them very rare and pricey. This compilation is here to help prevent these releases from getting swept under the rug by any means necessary.  Enjoy. JAH Bless.

Track Listing:

1. More On More

2. A, Miner

3. Inner City Lady

4. Wish You Were Mine

5. Tenement Yard

6. Nobody Knows

7. Special to Me

8. Don't Say No

9. Losing Weight

10. No Rushings

11. When I Needed a Friend

12. Street Walker

13. Bits and Pieces

14. Continent Woman

15. Feeling Irie [feat. Carlene Davis]

16. Sad and Lonely Man

17. Let Off Supm

18. Love is Overdue

19. Promise is a Comfort

(1984-1986)

The Wailers - Uprising Confrontation '80

 In this 2-CD set is the final piece of the Trilogy sessions before they were mixed to publish Uprising (1980) & Confrontation (1983). This set includes all of your favorite songs from both albums including missing tracks from Black Survival '79 which could not be included due to lack of time slots. Did we just make an continuing sequel of a trilogy? I think we just did! Speaking of "sequel" be on the look out of the Exodus & Kaya session releases coming soon entitled "The Wailers '77" & "The Sequels of Love". These two sets were supposed to be released first, I know "aww", right? But here's my redemption! If I would have released them at the time I was "supposed" to, it wouldn't have been the full release. The Exodus & Kaya sessions, lost dubs, & alternate mixes were a BIG mess being there are SO many of them. In fact SO many I'm sure it'll take more CDs to give you all the FULL set for those 2, than it did for these 3! Don't you just love the sound of that? I litterally have to break those sessions in half to make sure you get everything, so bare with me! I mean I was nice enough to say "skip it, just do it out of order so they can have SOMETHING", right?

  These sessions were devided up between his friends when he died. Some of them took better care of the tapes than others (you can tell by the sound quality), but nevertheless I&I appreciate them spreading the love & JAH's message!

P.S. These are the last STUDIO sessions, not last recordings. I will make a compilation of songs he recorded in late 1980 through early '81 RIGHT before he died, but only upon request! So spread the message. The more request, the more & faster I will release material, which is one of many reasons why it took me so long to release THIS. It's will include acoustics he recorded at his mother (Mama Booker) & other smashing sessions. These will be mostly acoustic though, many were written for a new album, however many believe the album was "Confrontation". Either way you look at it, it's all good material! JAH Bless!
