General Riddim, linked to Jah All Mighty and Xterminator, is a 1976 roots selection produced by Hyman Wright, Percy Chin, Jo Jo Hookim, Joe Gibbs, and Phillip Burrell. The set brings together era-spanning cuts from Dillinger’s General (Natty A De General), Ini Kamoze’s General, Toyan’s Love Night, and later versions from Cocoa Tea, Luciano, Pinchers, Sizzla, and others, showing how the same foundation carried from the late 1970s into the 1990s. The riddim’s title and track history point to a long-running Jamaican studio lineage, with the general theme anchored by Dillinger’s original cut and refreshed by later vocal versions.
