Creole’s personal rough mixes of sides recorded at the same late ‘70s session as the Channel One killer Beware.
Fishers Of Man is an extended mix, and Walls Of Jericho is teamed with a version retrieved from dubplate, adding synth.

Great album this; recommended with infernal heat. Beautiful close-harmony singing, killer tunes, tough rhythms, engaging songs. Junjo at Maxfield Avenue, with the Roots Radics. Heavy and luminous from start to finish.

Ace early Tubbys digi — stripped and moody — with fine, amusing vocals.

Late-eighties Jammys digital roots — with Steelie & Clevie at the controls — following up the classic Hell A Go Pop set. The hits were Running Back To Me and Distant Lover.

Ace, driving digi from 1989. Classic JA vocal-trio singing by Dervin Dawes and spars, with expert backing by the Firehouse Crew, full throttle at Music Works.
Still tears the place up.

Rudie gone soft. Irresistible love songs — with simmering brass, splashing cymbals on the A; classy sax on the flip.

Vocal duo Albert Bailey and Clifton Howell emerged from the trio The Officials. The Studio One 7” Ten Years Ago is them; also the stone-killer Babylonians, with Niney. Lee Perry re-named them The Ark. Here they are with Ossie Hibbert at Channel One… wicked, propulsive, vocal-harmony roots, with dazzling drumming, and a Shaka-missile of a dub, featuring Dean Fraser. Crucial bunny.

A dubplate making its 7” debut. The same deep roots vibe as their killer tune Peace Love And Harmony, Engagingly live and direct, with effulgent female background vocals.

Deeply zonked and moody variation on The Abyssinians’ classic, with a wicked blend of kit and machine drums. Rough.
