Penthouse’s 5 Star General Riddim sits right in that early-’90s stretch where the label was tightening up dancehall with a cleaner, tougher edge, and this one has a proper heavyweight lineup to match. Garnett Silk’s “Lion Heart” and Buju Banton’s “How The World A Run” give it two of the sharpest turns, while Sanchez, Terry Ganzie and Terror Fabulous keep the vibe moving between singing and deejay energy. The one-riddim page on the producer’s own catalog dates it to July 29, 1991, though it’s widely filed as a 1992 release, and the set also connects to Dave Kelly’s version of the old “General” rhythm. This collection runs through 12 cuts, including Alton Black and Ricky General’s “Ever Changing Time, ” Tony Rebel’s “One Day, ” and Wayne Wonder’s “Heal Massa God World. ”
