Funk
Review: Working in partnership with Light in the Attic and curated by Grammy-nominated producer, DJ and journalist Kevin Howes this wonderful new collection chronicles a vital musical migration: in late-1960s Toronto, Caribbean immigrants infused the city with ska, rocksteady and reggae and recorded some of the era's toughest tracks. Originators from Studio One, Treasure Isle and Trojan Records all united and broke racial and cultural barriers to build an influential yet under-appreciated Canadian reggae scene that is now showcased with a 20-page booklet with archival images, artist bios and essays on this double vinyl set.

Jamaica To Toronto: Soul Funk & Reggae 1967 -1974 (unmixed CD)

Funk
Review: The 16 songs on "Jamaica to Toronto" range from the in-demand Northern Soul attack of Eddie Spencer's "If This Is Love (I'd Rather Be Lonely)" to Jo-Jo And The Fugitives' unknown breakbeat monster, "Chips-Chicken-Banana Split". Taken from his 1971 album Wishbone, Mittoo's "Grand Funk" sounds like a Jamaican Santana, while The Hitch-Hikers featuring The Mighty Pope represent raw funk of the highest order on the righteous "Mr. Fortune". Reggae comes courtesy of dancehall don Johnnie Osbourne's "African Wake" as well as the magical "Memories" from Noel Ellis. Sit back and buckle your safety belt; this musical flight is about to take off.
