Delroy Wilson - Delroy Wilson's Greatest Hits (2025)

his CD contains a few of grand slams (notably “Cool Operator”), a pair of interesting covers (“Place” and “I’m in the Mood for Love”), some sizzling makeovers, and a clutch of new numbers. The material is all high quality and backed by the cream of the Aggrovators’ riddims. Whether the singer’s conquering the competition or doing his own thing, whether he’s in a dancing mood or the mood for love, Wilson is ever the “Cool Operator.”

Delroy Wilson was one of Jamaica’s most soulful vocalists and over a 40-year career the singer unleashed a flood of hits and a multitude of masterpieces. Wilson’s phenomenal talent would be his ticket out of the ghetto and his discovery by producer Coxsone Dodd in 1962 would change the path of Jamaican music.

“Joe Liges” garnered Wilson his first chart hit, and sparked Jamaican’s continuing love affair with pint-sized singing stars. Wilson’s work has also been collected on over 15 ‘Best of’ compilations and he features on dozens of compilations of reggae and ska music.
