The Trojan Records Box Set

To celebrate the 50th anniversary of Trojan Records, a massive 12-disc super deluxe edition box set has been put together.

Launched in the summer of 1968, the label was instrumental in introducing the sound of reggae to the world and within ten years or so, they had enjoyed over 30 mainstream chart hits by performers such as Desmond Dekker, the Maytals, Bob & Marcia, John Holt, Ken Boothe, Dave & Ansel Collins and the Pioneers.

The box set contains six CDs featuring over 130 tracks (with 69 on them on the format for the first time), four vinyl LPs showcasing hits and rarities and two seven-inch singles with previously unreleased and new recordings.

You also get a book on Trojan album sleeve art, slipmat, A2 poster, a patch and a wooden seven-inch single adaptor.

If you buy this box set from the official Trojan Records shop it is bundled with an exclusive 8-track CD of ‘rare and unreleased’ tracks (track listing not available). You don’t get this CD with the standard retail version (although that is about £15 cheaper in the UK, right now). On the official store there is also a box set bundle which comes with another book, a 224-page hardcover tome: The Story of Trojan Records. The book can be bought separately elsewhere too, so bear that in mind.

The Trojan Records Box Set will be issued on 27 July 2018.
