The Best Of Millie Small: Limited Edition Red Vinyl LP
Release date: 6 October, 2023
Limited edition colour vinyl reissue of Millie Small's compilation album, The Best Of Millie Small, for Black Story Campaign 2023.
Released in 1967, The Best Of Millie Small is a collection of the finest moments from the Jamaican singer and songwriter, known as ‘Millie’, including her worldwide 1964 hit My Boy Lollipop. The song reached number two in both the UK and US charts and sold over seven million copies worldwide.
Known as the ‘Queen of Ska’, Millie, through her hit single, helped greatly in introducing Jamaican music to a wider, international audience. It was also the first major hit for Island Records (although it was actually released on the Fontana label because Island’s Chris Blackwell did not want to strain its then-meagre resources!) and helped the label to achieve its mainstream success.
Red coloured vinyl reissue for this extremely rare LP. Remastered at Abbey Road, and including enhanced artwork and period photos!
