Customer Reviews:

The Trojan Story.......2003-02-08

I'm honored to be the first reviewer of the Trojan Story.
This cd is a diamond in the rough and can not be recommended enough. Most people don't know, but Ska music was the pre-cursor to Reggae music. Trojan happened to be a record company---a record label which was one of the first record labels to feature this genre of music. As such, The Trojan Story is a mix of artists and songs which highlight ska music. This album is rare---and before the internet it once took me over three years to track down the Trojan Story in America after I had left my only copy in Japan. Any lover of reggae music will love this album---it will enlighten their own understanding and enjoyment of this genre of music. Perfidia is my personal favorite and I have searched long and hard, to no avail, for this version on the internet. (Perfidia by the way means deliberate treachery). Train to Skaville, Don't stay Out Too Late, Yeah-Yeah, Dreader than Dread, Keep the Pressure On, It's Raining, The Whip, Pretty Africa, Do the Beng Beng and, one of the best songs of all time, Rudy, a Message for You. Many of these songs will stay with you for years to come. It is an excellent value for the money because it is two CD's. I can not recommend this album enough....it is very hard to find...and any reggae music lover MUST have this in their collection!! For this is Beauty :)....and Yes, to my friends, it is me Ashley, from Boulder, Osaka and Honolulu :)
