Caution produced by Leslie Kong, Carl McLeod, Ray McLeod for Beverly’s, Stingray in 1971
Caution Riddim – Beverly’s, Stingray brings together the Leslie Kong-produced 1971 root of the rhythm with later Stingray cuts from Carl McLeod and Ray McLeod, giving the set a neat mix of vintage Wailers-era foundation and modern interpretations. The lineup includes The Wailers and Bob Marley’s original Caution alongside strong later versions from Luciano, Marcia Griffiths, Morgan Heritage, and Mykal Rose, with Bob Marley’s cut anchoring the release and the 2004 vocal versions widening its reach across classic and contemporary roots voices. As a Leslie Kong-linked Beverley’s rhythm, it carries that early-70s Jamaican feel, warm and spare, with the kind of straightforward groove that lets the singers do the heavy lifting.
