Gappy Ranks

Tribute To Nesta Marley

Peckings

Exuberant, celebratory, citational Gappy, over an original rhythm; plus a poised Miss Kjah on the flip, coolly making Ain’t That Loving You her own.

Hortense Ellis

Hell & Sorrow

333

Absolute murder.
A searing, haunting song about abuse, bitter disappointment, and heartbreak, set to a tough, chunky Jimmy Radway rhythm, with edgy organ and dread trombone.
Hortense Ellis is rawly, indelibly authentic: this is her best record by miles.
Plus some stone-classic Big Youth on the flip, ecstatically riding a lethal dub of the same megaton Fe Me Time rhythm.
Killer.

Kirk Wonder

Dollars Weak

Meshock / TRS

Upful, true-born-scuffler sing-jaying over a crisp, late-eighties Mansfield McClean rhythm.
Life is for living, but watch your step; ‘dollars weak but life is sweet’.

Blacka Shines

Mob Him Kill Him

Gorland / TRS

Grittily slice-of-life reasoning by Shines aka Mark Anthony James. This is the 1989 do-over, produced by Roland Gordon.

Blacka Shines

Fraid A Prison

GIN / TRS

Lucid, engaging chat over deft, vibesing digi; produced by Roland Gordon in 1990.

Alton Ellis

Ain't That Loving You

Duke Reid

Everton Chambers

Why Did You Leave Me To Cry

Parish / Digikiller

Everton is compellingly beside himself, over a dazzling, bare-bones, digi do-over of the rocksteady classic Tonight.
Previously unreleased.
Fire.

Rod Taylor

I Think Of You

Jah Life Time / Digikiller

The great roots singer totally bossing this killer piece of late-eighties digi Lovers.
Like the Singing Melody excursion on the same stone-classic I Won’t Give Up rhythm, this is previously unreleased.

Singing Melody

Friday Evening

Jah Life Time / Digikiller

Upful, infectious, buzzing dancehall vibes, flirtatiously mashing in lines from Sunfire’s boogie classic Young, Free & Single, over the same murderously bumping digi rhythm as Frankie Wilmott’s I Won’t Give Up.
