Description:

MAN FROM WAREIKA is the first album recording by RICO RODRIGUEZ guided by his own artistic imagination, not to mention the only roots reggae album released on BLUE NOTE in the USA. Already deeply involved in the creation of the new ska sound at the time, RICORODRIGUEZ left Jamaica in 1961 and moved to the UK to inject new essence into reggae music. This album is one that makes the most of RICO's horns, which are more linked to the strong rhythms of Jamaica and the jazz tradition. This is a masterpiece in the history of reggae music. Limited pressing.
