Blazing start and great delivery, but rather treading water over killer late-80s digi.
Same vintage as his massive Dangerous hit for Redman. Not to mention the more voluble Don’t Touch The Crack by Dignitary Stylish.
Zinging with raw dubplate-style presence, like the other two 45s on this rhythm.
Even leaving aside the epochal title track, this is unmissable. Wildly original Jammys rhythms, cool as cucumber, with his old next-door-neighbour in full flow. Fire like E20, Like A Dragon, My Lord My God, Icky All Over…
Classic, feel-good, disco-friendly Lovers Rock from 1980. Sonia is so happy she sings to herself.
Titfers off for Frankie Beverly. Don.
Hard to resist Junior Murvin in this teasing, saucy mood, on a lovely nyabinghi rocksteady rhythm.
With an alternate take.
Crucial Gil Cang re-do of the eighties classic, with the man himself at the mic.
The definitive version of this sufferers’ anthem, in the best format, with a killer dub following up the deejay cut on the flip.
A short-run reissue of this excellent roots production by Carlton Lewis. Same singer as Jazzbo’s Step Forward.
