Linval Thompson is one of the great roots vocalists that ruled the dance floors of Jamaica in the mid 70's. With his distinctive vocal style and roots lyrics, he spoke of the struggles that faced the Rastas and this touched a chord with the people of Jamaica.

Even though he achieved a lot of success as a Producer it is his singing career that we focus on here, so Kingston Sounds have complied a string of his classic hits for your enjoyment.
