Barry Brown / King Jammy - It Ago Dread / It Ago Dub (12" Golden Gems)

Golden Gems is proud to present one of our favourite hits from the late legendary roots singer Barry Brown. Recorded in 1980, It A Go Dread features Barry’s unmistakable talent, here somehow anticipating what will become known slightly later as Waterhouse vocal style. With granitic drum n bass and driving percussions, the rhythm also testifies the ongoing shift between the late 1970s roots rockers and the early 1980s radics style. Produced by Prince Jammy, this reissue includes the original extended mix, one dub cut and one instrumental, all coming straight from the master tapes.
