His first recording, originally released in the mid ‘70s on the Percival label, and recorded at Dynamic Sound with the Now Generation Band. Nice and chunky.

Only an unmissable next dub of the titanic Tell Me That You Love Me rhythm, for crying out loud.

Excellent uptempo digi, with burning horns and a decent dub. No sitar and tablas, unfortunately.

Early, mostly unreleased, truly pioneering electronic work.
‘Through Pauline Oliveros and Deep Listening I now know what harmony is. It’s about the pleasure of making music’ (John Cage).

Zany, Alaskan, harmonica-led electro-pop, with a case of Krautrock-and-the-Moroders, originally released in 1980.

Groovy version of the Deodato-CTI Gershwin interpretation; with a Willie Lindo. The dub does the trick.

Soul jazz from the jazz pianist plus trio. The first half’s a bit soft, before Aquarius marks the dawning of the funky stuff — Evil Ways, Shaft, Booty Butt — ending with a cooking cover of The Meters’ Funky Miracle.

Tell them, Shabba.

Ah, yes… takes you back to 1968… and sultry Kingston nights loungin’ downtown with Madame Wasp (that’s her on the cover), to a chilled cocktail of rocksteady, calypso, pop, jazz, mood and bossa.

Remastered direct from the original master tapes, with previously unreleased outtakes and rarities — including Patti’s 1975 RCA audition tape.

Wow… the triumphant comeback of the indomitable King Culture. Super-heavy, Radics-style, wrecking-ball rhythm; proper singing; tough dub. The mixing of the harmony singing is magical.
