In the words of Don Letts AKA The Rebel Dread: \"Looking back, I see it as a turning point, a cultural crossroads when different genres collided, giving birth to something entirely new. It was a celebration of diversity and a rejection of homogeneity. It's impact has it rippled through the years, influencing subsequent generations of musicians and shaping the landscape of alternative music. The fusion of punk and reggae became a blueprint for bands seeking to break free from the constraints of genre. As DJ at The Roxy (the UK's first live punk rock venue) I was lucky enough to sees these ideas blossom to become what we now call the 'punky reggae party' and forty-five years later it's message is still in full effect. \"\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv data-bt-autogen\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBurning Spear - Slavery Days (Album Version)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDillinger - Buckingham Palace (Album Version)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e4th Street Orchestra - Za-Ion\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCulture - Two Sevens Clash\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Clash - Police ; Thieves (Remastered)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGeneration X - Wild Dub (Version)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eErrol Campbell - Jah Man\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eElvis Costello ; The Attractions - Watching The Detectives (Single Version)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGood Breed - Heights 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eXtc - Fireball Xl5 \/ Fireball Dub (`White Music' Out-Take) 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSteel Pulse - Ku Klux Klan 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Clash - (White Man) In Hammersmith Palais 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAfrican Stone - Choose Me 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGraham Parker ; The Rumour - Hey Lord, Don't Ask Me Questions 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAlthea And Donna - Uptown Top Ranking 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChina Street - Rock Against Racism 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDennis Brown - Money In My Pocket (Part 1) 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRuts - Jah War (Single Version) 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMatumbi - Point Of View (Squeeze A Little Lovin) 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDoll By Doll - Janice 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJanet Kay - Silly Games 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Pop Group - She Is Beyond Good ; Evil Dub 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJimmy Lindsay - Ain't No Sunshine 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStiff Little Fingers - Johnny Was 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Specials - Doesn't Make It Alright 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Selecter - Too Much Pressure 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePublic Image Limited - Poptones 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJoe Jackson - Sunday Papers (Album Version) 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Clash - The Guns Of Brixton 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Members - Offshore Banking Business (Edit) 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLinton Kwesi Johnson - Inglan Is A Bitch 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGlaxo Babies - Who Killed Bruce Lee?
