	Trojan Records - The History Of Trojan Records (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		Trojan's other budget range was the TBL series that featured a bit of everything and which for a time became the most favoured among British Reggae fans, particularly as it was on this line that the company issued their popular 'Tighten Up' and 'Club Reggae' collections.
		Trojan seemed to ideally suit his ambitions and after a series of negotiations, it was agreed that it be split into two separate entities: its publishing wing, BandC (Beat and Commercial) would become BandC Recordings Limited, while the records division would be re-launched as Trojan Recordings Limited.
		Trojan's success was duly noted by Sanctuary Records, who in 2001 took the decision to pay the sum of £10 million for the privilege of becoming the next owners of the historic label.

	BBC - Radio 1 - One World -Trojan Records
		Formed in 1968, Trojan Records quickly went on to dominate the Jamaican music scene in the UK until the mid-seventies, introducing millions to the sound of reggae throughout this period with innumerable releases, including numerous chart hits.
		When attempting to recount the origins of Trojan Records, it is almost impossible to identify a single, specific time and place as to when and where the label originated.
		In the meantime, the increased volume of recordings being purchased and licensed by the company resulted in Trojan launching a number of subsidiary labels, most of which showcased the output of a single producer.

		The book seems to be commissioned by the latest owner of the Trojan label, Sanctuary Records Group, so you have to expect that they’re proud of the label’s history.
		Trojan has always been a re-issue label, combining the individual works of Jamaican producers and artists onto distinct record labels in England, and later into LP compilations.
		The fact that so much of Trojan’s back catalogue is good is a testament to Jamaican music, not to Trojan, who spent no effort developing Jamaican artists.

		Since its creation in 1968, Trojan Records has led the way in presenting the very best in classic Jamaican sounds, from the Rocksteady and early Reggae sounds that dominated in the years of its launch, up to the modern styles of Dancehall and Jungle.

		Meanwhile, the increased volume of recordings being purchased and licensed by the company led to the formation of a series of subsidiary labels, most of which showcased the output of a single producer.

	Pama Records - The PAMA Records story... (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		Though the fanbase was initially limited to these ex-pats and a secret but growing legion of white admirers (who picked up on the music and treated it as the key to a mystery they were pledged never to reveal), the musicians were nearly always Jamaican.
		Of course, the Jamaican musicians were the stars, but due to the fact that a lot of Pama releases were recorded in England, there was a lot of local interest.
		The demise of the Pama Records is not at all well documented, but it seems to coincide with a general slump in reggae sales around the late 70's/early 80's.

		Trojan Records, in association with Sanctuary Records, will release a live concert DVD culled from two concerts performed by Bob Marley and the Wailers in late 1979.
		And the resulting film is an epochal record of a Bob Marley performance; one that stands up as being easily an equal of the better known Live at the Rainbow show filmed on the Exodus tour in 1977.
		However, there are a bunch of tunes from the new record: “Ambush in the Night,” “Africa Unite,” “One Drop,” “Zimbabwe,” and “Ride Natty Ride,” that last song an addition to the original video of the show, released in the early 1980s but long missing from the retail shelves.

		or most devotees, Trojan Records is as synonymous with reggae as Jamaica is. What's interesting, however, is that, like the music of Jamaica as a whole, the music of Trojan Records is only partially concerned with reggae.
		In part, it's because Trojan became little more than a reissue label as early as the late 70s, and most of the crucial Jamaican music released during this decade was coming out on other labels (most notably, Chris Blackwell's Island Records).
		These tracks certainly reveal a side of Trojan Records that most people don't know about, and the songs are historically interesting.
