I did some digging, and many old Reggae albums have been reissued as CD's. Places like Discogs, Ebay, Amazon, I-Tunes, etc., should have the CD's pop in from time to time, and maybe even each individual song available for downloading as an mp3. Another method is to buy the music on vinyl, and then convert it to a digital format, which is very easy to do if you have a turntable that has an RCA or USB cable attached to it.

For example, here's Dennis Brown's first album reissued as a CD on Discogs:

And here's a collection of some of his songs from the 70's on Amazon, available as individual mp3's:

Good luck!
