Desmond Dekker, The Aces - The Israelites (2016)

Mention reggae to most people these days and it’s almost guaranteed that only Bob Marley will spring to mind. Yet there was a time, back in the late sixties and early seventies when the Tuff Gong and his fellow Wailers were virtual unknowns outside Jamaica’s golden shores. Throughout this pre-roots era, the name most people in the street would most readily identify with the rhythms of the Caribbean was Desmond Dekker.
