On a bubblers rework of Mudie’s Love Without Feeling.

A late-eighties Bunny Lee production originally released on the Imperial label in Canada, with Rhythm Twins excursions on Death In The Arena, Love Me Forever, My Conversation, Roots Natty Congo, Storm…

Killer Jimmy Radway rhythm, brilliantly voiced.

Storming seventies Channel One rhythm with the same kind of militant double-time drumming as Gregory’s Mr Know It All. Mr Smart sings his heart out. Like the I Roy, on seven here for the first time.

What a tune. A surging, early-seventies Soul Syndicate rhythm, with a fulgent trombone solo; and succinct, profound reasoning from the Don, at his very best, about thinking for yourself. Rebel music to live by; as clear as a bell. That’s a tough Sleepy on the flip, too. Killer.

Three the hard way — the Don at the mic, Roots Radics, Scientist — in the early eighties. Previously unreleased.

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.

Trump-card trumpet version of Joyride, aka Riding West.
