Everything Crash produced by Blackbeard, Carl Johnson, Prince Buster, Herman Chin-Loy, Chris Cracknell, Freddie McGregor, Noel Browne, Dalton Browne for Hulk, Sir JJ, Fab, Aquarius in 1969
Everything Crash Riddim is a 1969 foundation set tied to a wide group of producers and labels, including Blackbeard, Carl Johnson, Prince Buster, Herman Chin-Loy, Chris Cracknell, Freddie McGregor, Noel Browne and Dalton Browne for Hulk, Sir JJ, Fab and Aquarius. The core of the rhythm is rooted in classic Jamaican ska-to-reggae era cuts, with The Ethiopians’ Everything Crash and Prince Buster’s Django Fever (Django Flu) and Pharaoh House Crash among the key versions, while Ansell Collins, JJ All Stars and Count Sticky’s Bigger Boss and Augustus Pablo’s Reggae In The Fields help show how long this rhythm has carried through the decades. The Ethiopians’ original 1969 cut is the anchor here, and the rhythm later resurfaced in versions like Clint Eastwood and General Saint and Freddie McGregor, which gives the set a strong vintage-to-dancehall bridge.
