The tune which finally saw Vin Gordon as the true successor to the legendary Don Drummond. Outstanding stuff, and quite possibly the most famous reggae riddim of them all.
Vin was called Baby Don. Drummond sadly was a tortured genius. I was talking with Tommy McCook some years ago and he said Don was the best musician in the Skatalites.
This is played by most of the same musicians who played on the original ska recordings from 1963-4. They’d already moved on to “one-drop” reggae/rock-steady.
Nope, still haven’t got my licence lmao :( Seeing this has made me sad. At least the song is still as great as ever! Got my own flat now which is just as good I guess ☺️
@@glennknudsen9157yeah man but a lot of these original dudes that made all these classic rhythms none of it was copyrighted a lot of them didn't even get paid that much I'm no sure it was that Boris dude that might not be fact you know what I'm saying though
Timeless.
Foundation Reggae at it's best Respect to Studio One & Soul Jazz
