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.
