Give Me A Love Riddim dates back to 1968 and is tied to Bunny Lee’s Lee’s imprint, with later cuts also running through the Upsetter and Black Scorpio camps. The riddim brings together a long line of singers and deejays across different eras, from The Uniques’ original Give Me A Love and Slim Smith’s Please Don’t Go to Johnny Clarke’s Please Don’t Go (Give Me A Love), Jimmy Riley’s Give Me A Love, and Don Carlos’ My Brethren Party. It also stretches into dub with Joe Gibbs’ Rema Dub and Tappa Zukie’s Chalice To Chalice and Loving Dub, showing how the rhythm kept moving through roots, version, and dub treatments over time.
