On this well-selected 2006 three-disc box set, Trojan presents reggae/rocksteady versions of Motown classics. Among the many highlights of the 50-track collection are John Holt's take on "The Further You Look, The Less You See," which stays close to its American counterpart until the jaunty chorus kicks in, and the Heptones' groove-laden version of "My World Is Empty Without You." More than anything, this compilation connects the dots between 1960s Detroit and Kingston, making it ideal for listeners who appreciate both vintage R&B and old-school reggae.   Technical Info Release Date : 07/18/2006 Original Release Date : 2006 Catalog ID : 05612 Label : Trojan Records (UK) Number of Discs : 3 Studio/Live : Studio Mono/Stereo : Stereo SPAR Code : n/a UPC : 00060768056121    Related Videos In Search of Solid Ground...
