Produced by Mickie Scott and Linval Thompson, I’m A Dreadlocks came out in 1981 on an unknown label and sits firmly in the early-’80s roots-dub period tied to that pair’s work. The release is a two-track set with Red Shift handling the dub side and Sammy Dread voicing the title cut, I’m A Dreadlocks. It also turns up in the Linval Thompson/Scientist orbit from the era, which gives it that heavy, stripped-back studio feel fans associate with those sessions. With just two cuts, the record keeps the focus tight and memorable, leaning on a deep roots rhythm, militant bass weight, and the kind of dread-themed chant that made this corner of the catalog so recognisable.
