Trojan Records: Soundtrack of a Revolution
Trojan Records: Soundtrack of a Revolution
An Hour of Iconic Sounds From A Pioneering Reggae Label
Trojan Records was founded in July 1968, during a cultural turning point in Britain, when Jamaican music was gaining traction in the UK. A collaboration between Lee Gopthal, the owner of Musicland record shops and Beat & Commercial distribution, and Island Records’ Chris Blackwell, the label was initially created to showcase music from legendary Jamaican producer Duke Reid. The name “Trojan” paid homage to Reid’s powerful sound system, famously mounted on British Trojan trucks with the motto: “The toughest sound around.”
