Ain’t That Loving You produced by Phil Pratt, Tappa Zukie, Bunny Striker Lee, Coxsone Dodd, Duke Reid, Sir Collins, Joe Gibbs, Steely, Clevie for Coxsone, Treasure Isle, Collins Down Beat in 1967
Powered by Coxsone Dodd, Duke Reid and Sir Collins, Ain’t That Loving You Riddim brings together key cuts from the 1967 rocksteady era across Coxsone, Treasure Isle and Collins Down Beat. Alton Ellis is the anchor here with Ain’t That Loving You, and Al Campbell’s take helps widen the set, while later versions from Dennis Brown and Jackie Mittoo show how long this tune kept moving through Jamaican music. It’s one of those crossover riddims that captures the shift from ska into rocksteady, with Treasure Isle’s polished vocal style and Studio One’s tight, rootsy feel both left in the mix.
