Going on fifty Duke Reid ska and r&b sides.
Tommy McCook, Eric Morris, Bongo Man, Stranger Cole, Baba Brooks, Don Drummond…

Terrific roots plodder from 1982, with Bertram Brown and King Tubby at the controls.

Everton is compellingly beside himself, over a dazzling, bare-bones, digi do-over of the rocksteady classic Tonight.
Previously unreleased.
Fire.

Lloyd Forest, Tommy Thomas and Samuel Bramwell at Joe Gibbs.

Presumably Aston aka Charlie from The Ethiopians, over a stately, meditative rhythm, with bare-bones piano, insistent woodblock, and lovely, floating horns, including a jazzy saxophone solo. Masterfully mixed by King Tubby, like all these stone-classic Yabby You sevens.

Carlton Barrett at the Black Ark in 1975, on a spare Upsetters rhythm, with Pablo playing clavinet. Lovely stuff.

Ace, earnest cover of the Barry White killer. Tight backing by the Dragonaires, with horns in full effect.
