5 The Hard Way DJ Clash ’86: Live And Love lands right in the heart of mid-’80s dancehall, when the deejay cut and thrust was getting sharper and more competitive. The set pairs Admiral Bailey’s cheeky “Politician” and “Woman A Me Yard” with Chaka Demus on “Superlitive” and “World Wide Trouble, ” while General Trees and Tonto Irie keep the pressure up with fast, patter-heavy rides like “Boom Shock A Tack” and “Ram Up Every Corner. ” This one came out on Live And Love in 1986 and is tied to Prince Jammy’s production line, which gives the whole thing that clean, tough digital-era edge. With 10 tracks split across five voices, the sequencing feels less like a random compilation than a friendly sound-clash roster, each artist getting two chances to turn the mic into a sparring match.
