Happy Go Lucky Girl Riddim – Treasure Isle

Happy Go Lucky Girl produced by Dr. Alimantado, Coxsone Dodd, Bunny Striker Lee, Duke Reid, Vivian Jackson for Treasure Isle in 1969

Happy Go Lucky Girl Riddim comes from Treasure Isle and is tied to Duke Reid’s production circle in 1969, with the set pulling together voices from the ska-to-reggae transition and later cut-ins from the dub era. The tracklist brings together The Paragons’ original Happy Go Lucky Girl alongside U Roy’s version, Dr. Alimantado’s take, Lizzy and Dennis Alcapone, Trinity, Wayne Wade, and Dillinger, plus The Aggrovators’ Happy Go Lucky Dub. That mix gives the riddim a wide reach, moving from the classic Treasure Isle sound into later roots and dancehall reinterpretations while keeping the same melody at the center.
