This record cover design started off with hand-painted lettering on a wood panel which was then formatted into an LP layout with overlaid classic Studio One center labels.
From the Studio One website:
The extended disco-mix was an integral part of Jamaican dancehalls from the 1970s onwards. It brought the experience of live performances, where multiple versions of a song were played and a DJ would be toasting to the man in the street. Collected here on REBEL DISCO are eight ultra-rare Studio One mixes made especially for dancehall fans, including the previously unreleased “Arena Rock” by Roland Alphonso & Jah Buzz. Featured are performances by The Heptones, John Holt, Tommy McCook, Winston Francis and the release also includes the now topical “Cure for the Fever” by Jim Brown. This new digital-only release is taken from the vaults at Studio One and includes many hard-to-find releases from the label. A particular favorite is Nana McLean’s reworking of the Everly Brothers’ “(Till) I Kissed You.”
