Super-charged soundsystem vibes — massive, dazedly sublime — from the 1983 LP I’m Still Waiting, produced by Patrick Edwards, and issued by Sugar’s Rocktone International, out of Queens, New York.
Plus a startling saxophone dubplate cut, featuring Dean Fraser.
Max’s masterpiece & prime Upsetter.
Surveying 1974-1978 at King Tubby’s studio, with Scientist in particular coming through. Randy’s and Channel One rhythms — Anywhere But Nowhere, No No No — featuring the likes of Robbie Shakespeare, Lloyd Parks, Sly, Carlton Barrett, Augustus Pablo, and Chinna. A bouquet of exclusive cuts, only issued once before, in the mid-nineties, by Zola & Zola.
Masterfully produced by Niney in 1979, the same year as Bobby Bobylon.
The only LP by this vocal trio; originally out on Creole in 1985. Recorded at Dynamic Sounds and Music Mountain; produced by B.B. Seaton.
Glads and Culture vibes.
It was intended that one of Hudson’s teenage sons would voice the dubs. In the event the Love Joys, Wayne Jarrett, and most inimitably Hudson himself featured at the microphone. Like Wackies, Hudson was a Studio One devotee — ‘I used to hold Don Drummond’s trombone for him so I can be in the studio’ — and the album follows Coxsone’s recent strategy of overdubbing signature rhythms.
The Studio One sides were aimed at the dancefloor; Hudson’s reworks of tracks like Melody Maker are more psychological. Heavy Barrett Brothers rhythms are pitched down and remixed deeper still with reverb, filters and other distortion, and overlaid with new recordings of guitar, percussion, keyboard, voice, often crazily treated.
Originally released in 1981 on the Joint International label, in NYC.
Legendary, strange, compelling music.
Deadly, dubwise space disco by the Gaylad — a version of The Earons’ Land Of Hunger, hauling it from Compass Point in the Bahamas, to downtown Kingston, Jamaica.
Killer UK steppers; classic sufferers.
UK soundboy frighteners from 2006.
Common Ground playing trumps.
Dynamite, previously unissued rocksteady version of the monumental Skatalites scorcher from a few years earlier.
A masterful, sublime cover of the Young Holt by the newly-formed Sound Dimension; backed with Roy Richards’ classic harmonica version of Summertime.
Unmistakable themes from the TV series soundtrack, in party-rocking style, with biff-boof organ.
