Here, bassist Guto Pryce compiles a barnstorming romp through the Trojan back catalogue, adding to the label's 40th anniversary celebrations with compilations by Radiohead's Jonny Greenwood, Andy Weatherall, Don Letts and Jazzie B from Soul II Soul. Horace Andy, U-Roy, Lee Perry and Bob Marley are all in full effect. The anniversary celebrations also take in remixes from the likes of Fatboy Slim, Justin Robertson, IG Culture, Nitin Sawhney and Coldcut. Tune in for the next great Trojan selection! 2007.
