Since then, Yoga's impressive slate of archival albums has covered a wide array of styles, from folkies Ted Lucas and Collie Ryan to the sublime new age sounds of Alice Damon and Joel Andrews to the psychedelic explorations of Bobb Trimble. DJ Baconfat and Sister Pirate Jenny celebrate 15 years of Yoga's idiosyncratic roster with tunes to get you started with the label if you're unfamiliar. Less

Considered one of the first ska songs, the Folkes Brothers' "Oh, Carolina" soon followed (also featuring the first appearance of rastafarians in Count Ossie's Mystic Revelation of Rastafari). Active all through the ska and rocksteady eras, he then found himself in England. Important solo work... then came the Specials and the 2-Tone explosion. Graduated to the house band for Jools Holland's "Later" music variety show. Rico was a musical Man for All Seasons. Less
