Ital Foundation - Live in Bermuda 1984

Jamwax proudly unearth this vintage live from Ital Foundation recorded in Bermuda. I hope you will enjoy this piece of reggae history, featuring all original members of Ital Foundation: Julian "Jules" Roberts (Vocal), Ralph "Papa" Flood" (Bass), Gabre "Gabe" Amlak (Drums), Vern "Alfie" Durrant" (Organ), Larry "Cocky" Steede (Synthesizer), Kevin "Aswad" Wilson (Vocal) and Johnny "Bat" Battersbee (Percussion). Strangely you will hear only one track (Reueal) from the only album from Ital Foundation. The group came together in the winter of 1977 in their home place Bermuda and started playing covers of groups & artists they love such as Bob Marley, Gladiators, Ini Kamoze...As the promoter said at the end of the show "a combination of a little bit of this and a little bit of that and some good original stuff". Respect to Ital Foundation, greatest reggae band outta Bermuda...ever.

« The Future Sounds Of Yesterday’s Dreams »
Jamwax is an independant label dedicated to mostly (but not restricted to) Jamaican music.
Since december, 1st of 2013, we have been reissuing hard to find and obscure songs from Jamaica the island in the sun, Bermuda, Trinidad & Tobago, and also Nigeria.
We want to give a second life to recordings we love and to help the artists/producers behind them so we always work with copyrights owner or the family estate. To write the half that never been told (as far as we can) is also a part of our mission.
With a unique secret process to manufacture our vinyl records, the highest sound quality is not only a slogan but a reality on our releases. We respect to the fullness the colour of the original sound.
