linval thompson: jah jah is the conquerer

Linval Thompson is one of the great roots vocalists that ruled the dancefloors of Jamaica in the mid-'70s. With his distinctive vocal style and roots lyrics, he spoke of the struggles that faced the Rastas, which touched a chord with the people of Jamaica. This in turn would set a tone that he carried on through his music career and future production work. Even though he achieved a lot of success as a producer, it is his singing career that is the focus here, and Kingston Sounds has compiled a string of his classic hits for your enjoyment.
