Right now this two disc 39 tune total masterpiece of 70's decade Deejays is only $3.99 from ebreggae. Any cheaper and the authorities call it a five finger discount. The names listed are a who's who of the roots era's best. Only big star missing is Big Youth. Attack records out of Merry Ole England put together this compilation. Apparently what they saved on packaging they put back into the music licencing. A good sound with a great choice of tracks. A few obvious hits might be delinquent but this is pure word slinging from the likes of Dennis Alcapone, Dillinger, Clint Eastwood, Trinity, Jah Stitch and Prince Jazzbo with both I Roy and U Roy plus U Brown and Hugh Brown. Confused? For the mere investment of $3.99 you even get the lyrically loaded throw down between I Roy and Prince Jazzbo. That complete showdown is now showcased on the Pressure Sounds release, Once Upon a Time at King Tubby's. Some fans insist Jazzbo was the last Deejay standing, but I place my bets with I Roy. Either way-Original Foundation Deejays is no gamble.
