about

Ghetto Priest returns to Ramrock Records for his final single release from his massively acclaimed ‘Big People Music’ with his cover of Ken Boothe’s ‘I don’t want to see you cry’, originally released in 1966 on Coxsone Dodd’s iconic Jamaican imprint, Studio One.

The LP cut boasts a who’s who line up of reggae royalty - Ghetto Priest sounding copasetic, keyboards by Carlton ‘Bubblers’ Ogilvie, Crucial Tony on guitar, David Fulwood & Richard Doswell (Ital Horns) nail the horns and Ivan ‘Celloman’ Mussey supplies the strings + cello action and the Bishop of Dub, Adrian Sherwood is on mixing duties. Fellow Ramrock Records artist, Greg Blackman, completes the line up on backing vocals and Matt Smyth from Liotia on the engineering tip.

On the North Street West remix, Ashley Beedle, Darren Morris and Jo Wallace retain the Ital Horns but take the vibe back to the golden Rocksteady years of mid-60’s with a sprinkling of 70’s Tuff Gong’ism, sweet harmonies and Darren channelling his inner Jackie Mittoo on Hammond. And lastly, as a very special bonus, the enigmatic Dr R.E.Y stepped into the studio with his melodica and laid down a beautifully haunting version for all you lovers of the Dub.

Love Love Love ON-U sound for decades of unwaveringly vital transmissions. Love their Pay It All Back comps for title/ethos alone (and one-shot rarities/spotlights) My favorite track changes every time I listen to this! Taking time to do the same is highly advised.. Rolling with the upful now just heard again on my 2nd time through whole tonight – wow this a great PIAB set 40 years from jump! Wow. Respect! MingTubbs

Hints of Portishead and even touches of Sade in places. Much of the album is dub reggae ... but not as you have known it before. Chilled, classy with lovely Holly Cook-esque vocals & woodwind flourishes - with lots of older Sherwood DNA running through it. Enjoy the ride. Tim Mee
