Stark, powerful singjaying over tough, livewire digi; produced in Jamaica by Delroy Francis for his Claypot imprint, and originally released in 1987.
These are the original mixes, newly transferred from the master tapes.
Gritty sing-jay reportage, originally released in 1987 on a Claypot 12”, back-to-back with Terrorists. Produced in JA by Delroy Francis, more widely known nowadays as the guvnor of the Park Heights label and record shop in Brooklyn.
Lovely, wheezing roots, with the same charming frankness and male vulnerability as Jux’ She’s Gonna Marry Me.
Great tunes to spin at wedding parties (cut with Pablo’s Bells Of Death).
No let up by the Drum And Bass crew — just check the sound samples — more rock steady treasures unearthed.
Recorded under the name Bumpy Jones, for Jerry Brown’s Summer label in Toronto (same Upsetters family tree as Bullwackies and Half Moon).
Ramshackle, tottering, bloodshot; brilliant, freely creative and compelling.
The killer dub is entitled Jah Jah Symphony In B Minor. Pretty droll.
