Dennis Brown - Lips Of Wine / Crystalites - Stranger In Town
Move & Groove / Dub Store Records JPN 1970
¥1380 (US$8.86)
Being known as Crown Prince of Reggae, this is Dennis Brown's commemorated first single and it was written and composed by Dennis himself. This is, of course, before he started recording at Studio One and is one of his best heartwarming songs. Crystalites' killer keyboard instrumental is featured on B-side and has been admired to listeners who have great appreciation for 1969-70’s up-tempo instrumentals.
Pat Satchmo - A Handful Of Friends / Kingstonians - Right From Wrong
Move & Groove / Dub Store Records JPN 1970/ 1971
N/A
Early Lovers Rock tune by Pat Satchmo. You can probably guess from his name that he imitates the singing style of Louis Armstrong. He showcased his amazing talent as he sang double perfectly in this song. B-side features a previously unreleased but marvelous tune by Kingstonians and Jackie Bernard fan must check it out!
Carltons - Better Days / Upsetters - Tight Spot
Underground / Bond Export US 1973
N/A
A killer double sider, the A-side is the Carltons aka Carlton Manning aka Carlton & The Shoes, with one of his all time best roots tunes, sublime harmonies. The B-side is the raw rhythm cut of the Upsetters' "Tight Spot", without the Dave Barker chatting and the second organ overdub. A tough early '70s rhythm later re-used by Wackies to great effect.
