Rougher Yet
Yet another Studio One original ... this onefirst recorded by Slim Smith. As I don't knowmuch about this riddim besides that I reallylove it, here's a list of the cuts I can remember and have at my hands. Let the names of allthose famous artists and producers speak for themselves and for the quality of this riddim:
Slim Smith "Rougher Yet", Sudio One, if you don't have it, you will have to go for the "Born to Love" CD on Heartbeat, it's not included on any other Slim Smith CD. I thinkthe recording is from 1970, but I'm not sure.
Yellowman "Wrong Girl To Play With"Josey Wales "Sorry To Say"From Yellowman / Josey Wales "Two Giants Clash"on Greensleeves, Junjo production. I rate thisclash a 4:1 in favor of Josey, it's thisriddim where Yellowman makes his (single) point.
Peter Metro "Seems To Me" from the "Peter Metroand Friends" album, 1984, Clive Jarrett productionwith Sly & Robbie.
Tipper Lee & Johnny Slaughter "Confusion" and"Poor Man" from the rather obscure "Murderer - Toyan with Tipper Lee & Johnny Slaughter" album.Unusual too that there are 2 cuts of the sameriddim on one album by the same artist.Jah Thomas production.
Lone Ranger "Love Bump" (what is this guytalking abou?!) "Collections" CD, prod. byHyman "Life" Wright.
Admiral Tibet "Curfew"Sister Verna "Island Over-Populated"Carl Meeks "We Need Love"Daddy Lilly "Shocking Shocking"All 4 are early digi-cuts (1986?) by GeorgeLemon on Photographer from the album"Photographer in a Dance Hall".
Scotty (?) "No Test We", King Jammy's cutfrom his "Dub Plates Vol. 1"
Terry Ganzie "Jingling" from around 1991.
Admiral Tibet "Nah Sleep A Jail House",Morris Johnson for Black Scorpio, e.g. on"Total Recall 9" (I love this VP series!)
Tenor Saw "Shirley Jones" on the fever album,plus the "Surely Dub" (CD bonus), where the riddim loop is from. Produced either byPeter Chemist or by Sugar Minott or by bothof them or by one of their uncles or nephews;boy, I hate incomplete liner notes when I haveto impress you folks with pure facts ...
Wayne Wade "Don't Expect Me To Be Your Friend",Willie Lindo production from 92/93, what abeautifull song!
And a dub version with a killer bass can be found on "King Tubby's meet Scientist in a world of Dub" on Burning Sounds.
Hey, can't find Striker Lee?!
