TOOTS AND THE MAYTALS: Live (at Hammersmith Palais). Used Mango Records LP in Mint/Near Mint condition, vintage (not reissue) pressing. Mango Records (via Island Records) Catalog # MLPS 9647; 1980


Condition: Vinyl is pristine, though nearing 45 years of age. LP jacket has just minor flaws: very small stain on front, above first  ‘t’ in Toots, tiny wrinkle here or there. Original inner paper sleeve with photos of band members is wrinkled, but that’s how it came. 


Behind the Music: When the Reggae Wave hit the United States big-time, anyone not named Marley had to work extra hard to get in the spotlight. (NOTE: I just listed a live album by Marley & the Wailers also.) ‘Toots’ Hibbert and his band achieved a very high stature in this scene. This concert was recorded at Hammersmith Palais, London scene of numerous famous performances, in 1979.


About the seller: I am downsizing my personal belongings, and you can benefit. Unless otherwise indicated, all my records have been owned by me alone and treated with loving care. No scratches or gouges. I have been a Jazz radio broadcaster for 30+ years, but my musical tastes are wide-ranging. You will see this as my listed offerings grow. New items added weekly, check back often!


PLEASE NOTE: I will not sell anything for less than $9.99, as it’s not worth packaging the item up and taking it to the Post Office. Sure, you can buy an LP for 50 cents or less at a yard sale, but will it have been cared for like mine? Not likely.
