I Am In Love Riddim – Tamoki Wambesi

Tamoki Wambesi’s I Am In Love Riddim sits right in that early-’80s reggae pocket where the groove is lean, warm, and built to leave space for the vocal. With only two cuts, it keeps the focus tight: Charlie Chaplin’s “Don’t Run” brings the sharper, more animated edge, while Don Carlos eases into the title track with that mellow, heart-on-sleeve tone he carried so well around this period. Roy Cousins’ Tamoki Wambesi outfit had a habit of pairing strong singers with no-fuss production, and this one follows that formula without overloading it. The result is a compact side of rootsy lovers-rock leanings, and the closing Don Carlos take, plus the instrumental version, gives the riddim its last word.
