MACCABEES
RECORDS
Independent Reggae label: Maccabees Records belonging to
British producer Keith Wint, who is otherwise known as Jah Benji
Maccabees. Maccabees issued singles sporadically from 1975 into the
mid '80s; the labels, which were usually brown and gold, don't have dates on
them. The first single on Maccabees was Rasfmra Asher's, 'Fourth
Generation', which came out in 1978 with a catalogue number of FG-1. There
were at least three other seven-inch singles, 'Ole Man River' and 'Mr.
Bojangles', by Dennis Brown, and 'Love Style' by Roland, as well as a 12" by
Junior Delgado, but these appear to date from the '80s. Keith Wint went on
to work with many prominent names of the Reggae scene during the
'90s. Distributed By Maccabees Records. Thanks to Robert Lyons For The
Info.
