Girlie Girlie Riddim – Winner Production 1985

Girlie Girlie Riddim lands in that bright mid-’80s reggae pocket where the arrangements are lean, catchy, and built for the dance, and this Winner Production set from 1985 is anchored by Sophia George’s “Girlie Girlie, ” the tune that gave the riddim its name and widest reach. Around it, Derrick Morgan’s “Lickie Lickie” and Charlie Chaplin’s “Boyie Boyie” bring the kind of sly, cheeky vocal energy that suited the era, while David Madden’s “Horny Horny” and Dick Tracey and Hutchy’s “Watchy Watchy” keep the mood playful. The riddim is credited to Sangie Davies on Riddim-ID, with the compilation also including a version cut under the same title, so you get the vocal sides and the instrumental backbone in one compact six-track package.
