We're celebrating the Merritone Sound System as the world's oldest sound system on record on National Merri Music Day. Merritone is the only sound system built in the original sound system era of the 1940s and 1950s that is still in operation. Merritone Music, as the last sound standing, has encouraged music enthusiasts around the world to learn about the historical movement that has influenced musical genres in Jamaica and around the world.
