Founded by Derrick "Duckie" Simpson, Don Carlos and Rudolph "Garth" Dennis, Black Uhuru is one of the most celebrated ever reggae acts. They were also the first to ever win a Grammy Award after forming in Kingston, Jamaica in 1972 and later added Sly Dunbar and Robbie Shakespeare to their rhythm section. Showcase was their second album, landing in 1977 and becoming a sought after classic in the ears since. An OG copy will cost you a few quid so Taxi finally reissue the whole thing in all its roots glory. The rhythms are fresh and embellished with a wide array of percussion and melodies that go beyond the standard reggae palette and help make it such a classic.
