IT HURTS TO BE ALONE RIDDIM produced by STUDIO ONE 1965

It Hurts To Be Alone Overview

The reggae track base for this project was built in the studio with a focus on deep roots and classic sound. Musicians and engineers worked together to capture the spirit of early reggae, using vintage instruments and recording techniques. The dub engineer played a key role, shaping the sound with creative use of echo and reverb. This gave each track a warm, spacious feel and brought out the heavy basslines that are central to reggae music. STUDIO ONE produced this release. The label is famous for its huge influence on reggae and ska. Founded in Jamaica by Clement "Coxsone" Dodd in the 1950s, STUDIO ONE has been called the "Motown of Jamaica." It launched the careers of many reggae legends and is known for classic releases that shaped the genre. This riddim features two important artists. Bob Marley & The Wailers perform "It Hurts To Be Alone." This song is one of their early tracks, recorded in the 1960s, and it shows Marley's soulful voice and songwriting talent. Bob Marley later became a global icon, with hits like "No Woman, No Cry" and the album "Exodus." Devon Russell delivers his version, "Hurts To Be Alone." Russell was a respected reggae singer who also worked with groups like The Tartans and collaborated with many other Jamaican artists during his career. This reggae track base adds depth to today’s roots scene and keeps the classic sound alive in modern culture.
