CD (Item 55608) Blood & Fire (UK), Mid 70s — Condition: New Copy

Sweet! – we can't get enough of Horace Andy's sweet falsetto keening over these chugging, fat rhythms! A tremendous set of sides Andy cut in the mid-70s, packaged together with a few of the cuts in dub versions. While Andy cut many seminal sides for Coxsonne Dodd's Studio One, this work, some of it in collaboration with the great Bunny Striker Lee, stands among his best. Here he reworks the Studio One classic "Skylarking" as a "Better Version" with Lee, and there's a number of pieces cut at Tubby's with the aid of Prince Jammy (who contributed a nice sound to the In the Light set, also issued by Blood & Fire), like the massive "Pure Ranking" in it's full 8+ minute 12" disco mix version. Also includes the "Dub Vibes" version of the title track, and "Mr. Bassie" & "Reggae Rhythm - It's Gone International".  © 1996-2013, Dusty Groove, Inc.
