Created By The Father Riddim – Various Labels

1970’s Created By The Father riddim comes through as a rootsy Studio One-era foundation, credited here across several labels and producers including Coxsone Dodd, Joe Gibbs, Niney The Observer, Clive Chin and Steve Martin. Dennis Brown’s original Created By The Father is the anchor, backed by Dub Specialist’s Dub Creation and later takes from Errol Dunkley, Freddie McGregor, The Silvertones, Leroy Gibbons and Luciano, which gives the set a long-run view of how the song kept resurfacing across generations. The Dennis Brown cut is the one that really defines the package, and the Studio One connection makes the whole release feel rooted in that classic Brentford Road sound.
