A Man Of Chances produced by Coxsone Dodd for Studio One in 1969
Produced by Coxsone Dodd for Studio One in 1969, A Man Of Chances is a compact two-cut riddim from the label’s classic rocksteady era. The Three Tops’ Man Of Many Chances anchors the pattern on the vocal side, while Dub Specialist’s Chances gives it a later instrumental version that shows how closely Studio One kept revisiting its own foundations. It’s a small but telling piece of the Studio One catalogue, with the kind of tight rhythm work and vocal harmony that helped define Dodd’s output in the late 1960s.
