23 tracks new to CD. Includes numerous boss reggae hits. Plus previously unreleased material. By the close of the 1960s, Lloyd 'Charmers' Tyrell was firmly established as one of Jamaica's premier talents, having previously made his mark as a key member of leading vocal outfits, The Charmers and The Uniques. His move into record production in 1968 swiftly resulted in numerous Jamaican hits, with his success attracting the attention London-based reggae music giant, Trojan Records, with whom he swiftly signed a licensing deal in 1969. As the 60s drew to a close, Trojan released the first two best-selling instrumental albums, 'Reggae Is Tight', on which the multi-talented Charmers demonstrated his keyboard-playing talents over a dozen fast-passed rhythm tracks. Hot on it's heels came a second non-vocal collection, on which the performer-turned-producer displayed an equal degree of dexterity on piano, with leading Jamaican band, The Dragonaires backing him on a dozen instrumental cuts of early reggae favourites. Both these hugely popular LPs feature on this double-disc set, which also includes the remainder of his instrumental output from the golden age of boss reggae sounds. With over 23 tracks making it's long overdue CD debut and the 'Reggae Charm' album finally it's long overdue digital debut, the collection is must for all true fans of vintage Jamaican sounds.
