Don’t Think About Me Riddim – Various Labels

Don’t Think About Me produced by Keith Hudson, Balford Henry for Mafia, Hudford, Original Music, Cash And Carry in 1973

Don’t Think About Me Riddim is a 1973 Keith Hudson production issued through labels including Mafia, Hudford, Original Music, and Cash And Carry, with Horace Andy and Earl Flute’s title cut at the center of a compact but very deep roots selection. The set also pulls in Big Youth’s Can You Keep a Secret, Keith Hudson’s own Melody Maker and War War, plus Jah Woosh’s I’m All Right and a dub pass with Ghetto Dub, giving it a mix of vocal sides, deejay energy, and stripped-back versions. Hudson’s name runs through the whole thing, and the release also ties into his broader run of early-70s rhythm work that was later reworked across multiple cuts. Its mood is heavy, spare, and version-driven, with the instrumental and dub tracks helping underline the tough studio feel.
