The guitarist recorded at Oliver Sain’s St Louis studio in 1969 — but the best stuff here isn’t funk, it’s a kind of shimmering, limber, spare steppers. With organ and a second, rhythm guitar, and one Paul Jackson on bass.

Dark, menacing and pained; wonderful Upsetters, always timely.

Great to have the Saxon man back, in top form on this slug of nasty NW1 digi.

The great UK MC retrieves his war chest from the potting shed.
An expert, moody Tuff Scout re-lick, with a haunting new vibes part and lethal effects.

The greatest UK MC of them all, setting fire to Tempo.
Soundboy willies. Do it Jah.
Amenably sick, synthy dub.

Extended, with dubs.

‘Away with your fussing and fighting, away with your hypocrite system.’
A masterful Pablo production, sprinkled with Black Ark magic, finetuned by King Tubby; searing Delgado.
A rebel-rock masterpiece.

Jux alongside Adrian Sherwood, in 2005.
Thunderous… with a magnificent burning-horns dub masterminded by London Is The Place alumnus Harry Beckett.

Jubilant, party-hearty deejay cut to a thumping, body-rocking Jah Life do-over of the almighty Love Without Feeling rhythm. Sister Carol smashes it out of the dancehall and into the trees. The dub is knockout, too: raw drum & bass, in your face.
‘Mi have di potential an mi have di credential… in a dance hall, concert an’ rehearsal… mi will mash it, as per usual.’

Featuring Norma Winstone.
