PRESIDENT KENNEDY * SIR DEE'S GROUP * DEE'S 115 * UK

Classy early Jamaican Boogie Shuffle instrumental, with nice long laid back saxophone and trumpet breaks; the next side is a male vocal My Baby Left Me a Shuffle by Theo Beckford. The disc itself does seem to have an anomalous history, the stamps are for 'Lyn's Radio Engineering 100 Orange Street Kingston Jamaica W1' and that stamp has been applied after the scratching out on the label, and as the disc is a British pressing this implies that it had been exported to Jamaica, and possibly used by a Sound System.
