Heavier Than Lead
LP (Item 607343) Kingston Sounds/Jamaican Recordings (UK), Mid 70s — Condition: New Copy
I Roy takes off on a host of classic cuts – giving them his own mighty touch – that witty twist that always made his contributions so great! Most numbers were recorded at Randys or Studio One – with instrumentation that includes Tommy McCook on tenor, Bobby Ellis on trumpet, Winston Wright on organ, and Sly & Robbie on rhythms – all of whom provide a very soulful bottom for I Roy to work with! Titles include "Musical Feast", "City Slicker", "Give Thanks To Jah", "Musical Explosion", "Straight To Jazzbo Head", "Words Of Wisdom", "Stick Around", and "Hard Bud Fi Dead". © 1996-2013, Dusty Groove, Inc. | |||||
