Toots and the Maytals at Wembley 1970. From the movie Reggae by Horace Ove.
Could have done without the King Kong cut-ins and concentrated on the performance! No matter, still a gem from the archives.
Taken from his 1976 LP: Natty Rebel on Virgin. When I was recording this, I thought to myself "This is a bit modern", I'm getting into mrrk's territory and then I realised its bloody 31 years old!!
US315, no A or B side stated, but this is the A side. TMX328 is the Trojan Matrix Number, given to tunes before they are put out on a Trojan subsidiary label, but where else would this have gone, apart from the Upsetter label.
On a Jamaican Crystal label. Derrick Harriot produced. Big Youth toasting over the Stop that Train rhythm. Check the vocal snippets being mixed in and out quickly.
From the TV programme Aquarius from the 70s. Roy Shirley turns in a great live performance and the band really cooks, especially the girl on keyboards who powers this tune along with those pumping keyboard chords. Pop-a-Top stylee!!!
