I have seen them on-line but didn't realize that they had such an extensive collection of oldies till you pointed it out. Thanks. I have this one and I have played it in the car so much that it is getting worn out.





This is perfect for me:



It's unbelievable how many of my favourites are on here plus some I have never heard of.

I see Amazon has the Trojan Boxsets sometimes.

I'm really not familiar with rock steady other than a couple of festival songs so this will be interesting to explore.
