Way Out West's pioneering
A 1963 record from the early days of ska by Roland Alphonso and the Skatalites.
This 7-inch single is an important record of the evolution of Jamaican music from ska to reggae. Side A, "Way Out West," shines with its playful interpretation of a western movie theme with a ska rhythm. Side B, "Junior's Jive," is also a masterpiece featuring Alphonso's dynamic saxophone playing. This historic single marks a valuable page in the history of Jamaican music.
