Give Me The Right produced by Coxsone Dodd, Bunny Striker Lee, Bertram Brown, Jo Jo Hookim, Mr Doo, Winston Powell for Studio One, Freedom Sounds, Mr Doo, Stone Love, Kariang in 1973
Give Me The Right Riddim pulls together a wide 1973-rooted set around the classic Coxsone Dodd, Bunny Lee, Bertram Brown, Jo Jo Hookim, Mr Doo, and Winston Powell production circle, with the rhythm tied to Studio One, Freedom Sounds, Mr Doo, Stone Love, and Kariang. The lineup ranges from early-cut staples like Big Joe’s Rocking Round Town and Dillinger’s Trial And Crosses to later versions by Dennis Alcapone, Rod Taylor, Bobo General and Trevor Sparks, and Jah Cure, so it traces how the same riddim kept resurfacing across decades. A standout version comes from The Aggrovators with Into Bradforth Dub, which points to the dub side of the rhythm as well as the vocal one. It plays like a compact roots-to-digital history lesson, with the groove moving from foundational seventies reggae into nineties revival cuts and a clean, version-heavy feel throughout.
