Reviews

MrDayInTheUk Oct 9, 2023
A fantastic collection of early Trojan A sides and B sides. Packaged in a sturdy little hardback book style cover with a reasonable booklet, that goes through each single, attached to the centre.
I suspect some of the tracks on here (and the other 3 volumes) are needle drops ? There are some very crackly, wobbly sounding recordings. Don’t let that put you off though. The SQ adds to the vibe and the historical value of these tracks. There was a time when you could get all 4 sets for a good price. If you see them around for prices you are happy to pay, then I do recommend these. 5/5.
