Upsessions, The

The New Heavyweight Champion (pink)

The album that started it all for The Upsessions: Skinhead Reggae galore! Fourteen tracks of straightforward early reggae inspired by The Upsetters, Lloyd Tyrell's The Charmers and Joe 'The Boss' Mansano. This album gave the band international recognition. Since then The Upsessions and their songwriter Boss Capone played everywhere throughout the world. In their careers they collaborated and recorded albums with reggae stars like Lee 'Scratch' Perry, George Dekker (the Pioneers) Stranger Cole and Monty Neysmith (Symarip) and many more. This pressing marks the 20th anniversary of this classic debut album by The Upsessions and the record has been remastered for vinyl which makes it sound better than ever! To please all the cool skinheads and rudies we pressed this 20th anniversary edition on solid baby pink vinyl which makes it look tougher than ever!
