Dusty one-drop energy and a sly rub-a-dub swing run through Everybody Bawling Riddim, the old Treasure Isle pattern that keeps resurfacing across late-70s and 80s cuts. The lineup jumps between deejay pressure and melodically minded singers, with Brigadier Jerry’s “Everybody Bawling, ” Cornel Campbell’s take, and Cocoa Tea’s “Bawling For Soundclash” giving the sequence three different angles on the same frame. The compilation also folds in dub-minded pieces like The Supersonics’ “Everybody Dubbing” and a few later reworks, so it plays like a small history of how the riddim travelled. Riddim-ID traces the foundation back to 1969, first cut as “Everybody Bawling” by The Melodians and Tommy McCook and The Supersonics, then voiced by U-Roy and reworked again by Duke Reid.
