"THE LADIES AT JOE GIBBS" CONTAINS CLASSICS FROM THE FEMALE ARTISTS GIBBS RECORDED BETWEEN 1972-1984

The Ladies At Joe Gibbs” brings together 19 classic hits from the female artists Gibbs recorded between 1972 and 1984 & includes six extended versions or extended Deejay cuts! The CD comes with a 12-page booklet with liner notes from Daddy Lion Chandell.

The legendary productions of Joe Gibbs have generated many of the reggae genre’s biggest hits. The producer/label operated predominately between 1972 and 1984. Judy Mowatt, here as Julie Ann (member of Bob Marley’s I-Threes) and June ‘JC’ Lodge went on to have major careers in Reggae music while other names have faded.

The songs and riddims are most familiar and underscore why Joe Gibbs productions were at the top of the genre during these prime years. Some of the re-mastered tracks include previously unreleased extended mixes. Featured tracks include Marcia Aitken “My Man” and “I’m Still In Love With You” (which scored # 1 Pop in England), June ‘JC’ Lodge “Someone Loves You Honey” and a special extended version of Althea & Donna’s classic rocker “Uptown Top Ranking”.

More favourites include Jem & Dean with “Holiday Style” (Riddim: ‘Everday Is Just A Holiday’), Beverly Bailey’s “I Was In Love”, Althea’s “Downtown Thing”, and “I Can’t Stand The Rain” by Hortense Ellis in the extended version!
