DUKE REID



A Reggae label; part of the Trojan group.  Duke Reid issued approximately twenty singles during the period 1970-73, all of which were produced by Duke Reid.  The label design remained the same throughout, but the text 'Made in England' appeared on records from DR-2520 onwards.  'Music Master' credits Trojan with manufacture, but the company had no pressing facilities of its own and outsourced the work, often to Orlake.
