This is a compilation from the early reggae period released in 1970. It is produced by the influential reggae producer who was Jamaican-Chinese, by the name of Leslie Kong. Kong is responsible for many great hit songs from Jamaica during this vintage period. He launched the career of Jimmy Cliff. He was also the producer behind the scenes for not one but two Desmond Dekker singles in ''007 (Shanty Town)'' and ''Israelites". Long was the pivotal figure behind arguably reggae's longest lasting superstar, Jimmy Cliff and also started producing Marley's first single ''One Cup Of Coffee''. Reggae as it is known now in 2019 would not be anything like it is today if it was not for the magical hands of Leslie Kong behind the tracks many people admire.
