Notes

“Ska Matic” is a fictitious title. Correct title is “Ska Shuffle” by Soul Brothers, matrix CSD 148. “Soul Call” is an incorrect title. A different track with that title was released on the LP Ride Me Donkey in 1968, with credit to Jackie Mittoo. That track is on the “Catch The Quinella” rhythm after the song by The Actions. “Soul Call” is previously unreleased and on the "Everybody Rude Now" rhythm after the song by Keith McCarthy.

Bands include the Soul Brothers, The Skatalites, The Soul Vendors and the Sound Dimension. Recorded throughout the 1960s and early 1970s.

"Jackie is a true legend in Reggae music.
Mentor to countless singers and musicians, as well as being a great part of the Studio One story. As a musician he was just always there, both personally and spiritually. Jamaican music lost a true giant and Studio One lost a friend when Jackie passed on.
This 31 song tribute showcases many of different sides of Jackie. From his Jimmy Smith styled organ outings, to Stax influenced soul workouts, to his own Reggae rave ups. You'll hear vocals and solos, and plain exuberance, and you'll always hear soul. 'Cause Jackie was a true soul man and it showed. Thank you Jackie, we will miss you."
