Justin Hinds topped the charts in Jamaica with his 1964 single “Carry Go Bring Home” and eventually recorded a staggering 70 singles for the Treasure Island Record label. A ska and rocksteady pioneer, after a short stint with Mango Records in the ’70s, he returned to the studio to record material for Nighthawk Records.
Travel With Love was originally released in 1984, and combined Hinds and The Dominos’ classic past with the evolving reggae sound. The original albums’ eight tracks were supplemented with a CD bonus track three years later, and eventually two more songs were unearthed for a 2015 LP reissue release. With Omnivore Recordings’ acquisition of the Nighthawk Records label in 2017, even more material has been discovered and added.
Miss Wendell And The Book Of History: The Nighthawk Mixes contains three, previously unissued mixes of “Miss Wendell” and “The Book Of History,” created at the time of the original album’s release, but which remained unreleased for nearly four decades. The tracks are compiled on LP exclusively for Record Store Day 2023 (April 22), with Digital availability the following Friday (April 28).
