A Fool Will Fall Riddim – Volcano Records

1981’s A Fool Will Fall Riddim on Volcano Records, produced by Henry Lawes, is a tight two-track showcase from the early dancehall era. The lineup pairs The Wailing Souls’ A Fool Will Fall with Toyan’s Reggae Gone International, giving the rhythm a strong blend of harmony and deejay style. Lawes was one of the key figures behind Volcano’s run of influential releases in that period, and this one sits right alongside the label’s heavy early-’80s output. With just two cuts, it keeps the focus on the instrumental feel and the vocal delivery, making it a compact but memorable slice of classic Jamaican production.
