The Greater Antilles Sampler LP

Hieno kokoelma Antilles-yhtiön kokeellisen musiikin artistien kappaleita. US-painos.

Antilles Records was a record label founded as a division of Island Records. It began as a jazz label, recording Joanne Brackeen, Biréli Lagrène, and Phil Woods,[1] though its catalogue did expand to include eclectic musicians like Brian Eno and Robert Fripp. It was the first to introduce the Slits and Nick Drake to American audiences. One of its founders was Jeff Walker, an employee at Island and the first A&R director for Antilles.
