The Blues Busters were a vocal duo from Jamaica formed in 1960, consisting of Philip James and Lloyd Osbourne Campbell. They were the most consistently popular Jamaican male duo of the early 60’s, and among the Jamaican artists who performed at the 1964 New York World’s Fair. They initially worked in cabaret shows to tourists in Kingston and Jamaica’s north coast, but got their big break when they were asked to accompany Sam Cooke on his tour of the island in 1961. Taking inspiration from Cooke, on returning to the cabaret circuit they emulated the soulful harmonies of his performances and recorded a number of soul and reggae cover versions. In the late 60’s the pair moved to New York City. There, James reportedly died from asthma at age 47 in 1989, and Campbell from a heart attack at age 50 in 1992. The duo are buried with one grave between them in the Pye River Cemetery in Montego Bay, Jamaica, the city of their births. In 2015 Campbell and James were posthumously honoured with keys to the City Of Montego Bay.
For sale here is an original Jamaican pressing from 1971. The vinyl is in excellent shape (looks almost new) and the sleeve has some wear considering its age, check out the photos. An amazing reggae / soul treasure!
