Various Artists - No More Heartaches


A perfect collection of boss reggae hits on this one, from the producer Harry Johnson who produced from the 60's to the late 80's in Jamaica Sadly, he passed away in 2013, but was responsible for some classics included on this compilation. "No More Heartaches'' is definitely a highlight, which was later covered by a number of artists, but the original band was The Beltones. Another highlight is Lloyd Robinson with ''Cuss Cuss'', which is hugely recognisable because it has one chord played throughout the entire track, and it is a minor chord. The name The Harry J All Stars is actually not a distinct group but really whoever was around in the studio when Harry Johnson was around.
