Island Records on Vinyl

Island Records is a label that Chris Blackwell founded in Jamaica in 1959 and moved to London in 1962. Island brought reggae to the world, above all with Bob Marley & The Wailers from “Catch A Fire” (1973) onwards, and at the same time became one of the most important rock labels: Traffic, King Crimson, Free, Roxy Music, Cat Stevens and, from 1980, U2.

Here you'll find Island records, used and new: reggae, rock and pop from every decade. Every record is graded to the Goldmine standard, and the photos show the actual copy.
