The first Xmas reggae tune has arrived. A 7 inch released by both Jump Up! Records (from Chicago) and Aggrobeat (Germany/ Netherlands). Monty Neysmith sings in 'Reggae Reggae Christmas' about dancing during Christmas time and it is backed by a great swinging reggae ‘Jingle Bells’ version. Producer is Boss van Trigt aka Boss Capone. Former member of Dutch reggae/ska outfit The Upsessions. They played with Lee Perry and one of their albums, 'Beat Your Reggae'( 2009) was released by the Dutch label Excelsior. Nowadays, Boss records under his own moniker with singer Patsy.
The original version of Reggae Reggae Christmas from 2016 is on Bandcamp. The new version with Monty Neysmith is a re-recording, the flip is a totally new recording. More info HERE.
