The multi-faceted genius of Eugene ‘Yonachak’ Cline, producer, multi-instrumentalist and singer from St Lucia, beautifully presented by Hornin’, with top-notch, live-and-kicking sound, in a gorgeous sleeve.
It’s a gripping, crazy mix. Deep, mid-seventies roots, Half Moon style, extended, with an instrumental, and ace dubs; nuts but banging late-eighties digi; off-the-wall rasta-soca fire.
Great stuff.

Deadly, seventies, New York roots. Rugged, a little wired.
The basic rhythm-track is Wackies-style. The flamboyant brass chart is jazzier. Moody organ, too. Young Roots himself goes on a bit.
The band backed The Aksumites on their first 12” (Afrika Fe De Afrikan) and gigged around the City.

I Believe this reissue is not properly licensed.

Outstanding set of dubs originally released in the late-1970s, out of Carl Campbell’s record shop on Church Avenue in Brooklyn, New York.
Sly & Robbie, Augustus Pablo, Chinna, Tommy McCook and co; with Mikey Jarrett doing the ebullient intros.
Dub For Joy is the standout, amongst several heavyweights.
