Bonne nouvelle du côté de Soul Jazz Records : la sortie de la compilation "Coxsone's Music 2 - The Sound Of Young Jamaica - More Early Cuts From The Vaults Of Studio One 1959-63", regroupant plus de 40 titres qui établissent les fondations du Reggae avec notamment Don Drummond, Clancy Eccles, Tommy McCook, The Skatalites, Delroy Wilson, Toots & The Maytals, etc.
On retrouve toutes les influences, jamaican rhythm and blues, jazz, gospel, proto-ska, rastafarian, qui ont été mises à profit pour créer les futurs sons du reggae jamaïcain que Sir Coxsone et les artistes du moment vont bientôt créer au Studio One, à partir de 1963.
