The Jazz Jamaica All Stars ‘Massive’ album from 2001 is set for an audiophile release in June with vinyl specialist Gearbox Records. The original tapes were mastered for vinyl by Ray Staff at Air Mastering and there will be a limited edition of 500 albums. This release will be ‘Massive Part One’ as the shorter vinyl running time means that some tracks have been lost, but they will certainly return for ‘Massive: Part Two’.
Jazz Jamaica All Stars Massive Vol.1 Cat No: GB1509
Side A: 1. Ball of Fire 2. My Boy Lollipop 3. Again
Side B: 4. Footprints 5. Liquidator 6. Medley: The Godfather/Al Capone
