Forward March | Expanded 2Cd Edition

To commemorate Jamaicas 60th year of independence, Doctor Bird present Derrick Morgans seminal long player, the title track of which became a national anthem for celebrating islanders in 1962. Previously unavailable on CD, the LP has been expanded to include the remainder of the singer-songwriters early recordings for Leslie Kongs revered Beverleys Records, originally released between 1961 to 1963. The second disc focuses on Derricks return to Beverleys during the Rock Steady era, with the selection commencing with his hugely collectable Best Of album, which first saw issue on Doctor Bird in 1969. The LP is similarly enhanced here with the original track-listing bolstered by his finest Rock Steady and proto-Reggae recordings for the label.
