Nice, mid-tempo tune, Eek A Mouse style and fashion.
Rough! Same rhythm as Frankie Paul’s Leave It To Me. Moody, inimitable, brilliant Jammys, with inspirational singing by the great CC.
Tough, thumping Jammys from 1989, with expert falsetto singing from CT.
Wholesome digi-roots bumper from 1990; rinsed by Shaka in the day.
Tough Beres Simpson revive. With the Roots Radics, maybe.
Tuff Scout rises to the occasion with a majestic rhythm, echoing and musically boned, sat well back in the saddle like Brother Roy’s Different Experience; whilst the great man does an entertaining variation of Memphis Tennessee. Ace dub.
Long Distance Information? May I speak to the High Priest?
The first Paid Reach — in collaboration with Ominira; edited and produced by Kassem Mosse.
On Little Roy’s Christopher Columbus.
Dubplate, deejay piece to Fulk Reid’s Golden Daffodils (itself put back till the next batch of Digikillers, because of manufacturing problems). Mojo Blue aka Jah Mojo, from Santic.
Outstanding roots from 1979, produced by Prince Hammer. Tough dub. too.
Legendary ska destroyer. Frankenstein passing through Rome, riding West. All the Byron you need (except maybe Childe Harold).
‘Yes we nice, yes we nice… Hold them, music, hold them, yes, we control them… no we nah go let them stray.’ Dancehall manners — on the rhythm Delgado used for Rasta People — as clinically murderous as all-time EJ hits for Jammys like Rock Them One By One and Turn Up The Heat.
A hollowed-out, minor-chord rhythm… SB bubbling moodily about ‘if you’re having a problem and you don’t know to solve them, down the road there is a party’... a stripped, brilliant dub.
Classic Jammys from 1987.
Tough Jammys do-over of Cuss Cuss, with dangerous bass and banging dub, and Junior in no mood for messing. ‘Galong before we chop off your hand.’
