Description
The sixties were a golden age for Jamaican vocal trios. In the second half of this incredibly creative decade, a multitude of harmony groups shaped the island's music scene, but only a few of them possessed the talent and determination to outlast the rocksteady era.
One trio that not only made it, but actually flourished after the advent of reggae, was The Pioneers, who were one of the first Jamaican groups to achieve international success in 1969 with their British hit "Long Shot (Kick De Bucket)." The success of the single was quickly followed by one of the best-selling Trojan long players of all time, the aptly titled "Long Shot." The LP features a dozen of the group's best-known works to date for one of reggae's earliest and most successful producers, Leslie Kong, and includes a number of Jamaican hits, including "Samfie M and "Black Bud," as well as the best-selling title track.
"Long Shot" is available in a limited edition of 750 individually numbered copies on Translucent Magenta vinyl.
