Carry Go Bring Come Riddim – Various Labels

Produced by Duke Reid for Treasure Isle, Carry Go Bring Come is one of the classic early riddims to bridge ska into rocksteady, with the original Justin Hinds and the Dominoes cut dating back to 1963 and later resurfacing through versions on Baron’s, Greensleeves, Anchor, and Peckings. The lineup here leans into 1993 dancehall and roots versions from Beenie Man, Bounty Killer, Capleton, Freddie McGregor, Josey Wales, and a Capleton and Nadine Sutherland combination, alongside the timeless Justin Hinds original and a King Sporty cut from 1970. That mix makes the riddim easy to recognise: a Duke Reid cornerstone with a long afterlife, carrying the playful, chatty pulse of the original into tougher 90s dancehall styles.

Carry Go Bring Come produced by Duke Reid, Byron Smith, Augustus Clarke, Isaiah Laing, Duke Peckings for Treasure Isle, Baron’s, Greensleeves, Anchor, Peckings in 1963
