Trojan Records will mark their 50th anniversary this year with a flurry of activity, including the release of a massive box set, a coffee table book, a documentary film, a number of concerts and the launch of a new label.
Released on July 27, the Trojan Records 50th Anniversary Box set is a 4xLP + 6xCD + 2×7″ package featuring over 130 hits and rarities, including several unreleased tracks. The package also contains an album covers book, posters, patch and slipmat. Pre-order the box set here.
It’s accompanied by the publication of The Story of Trojan Records, written by Laurence Cane-Honeysett. The book contains hundreds of photographs, record sleeves, labels and archive material, most of which has remained unseen for decades.
A new film documentary by BMG and Pulse Films, entitled Rudeboy: The Story Of Trojan Records, is expected to make its festival debut this year.
2018 will also see the launch of Trojan Reloaded, a new imprint set to release new music from the Trojan stable for the first time in over 25 years.
