Barrington Levy is the headliner here, and that’s the right place to start: “Jumpy Girl” catches him right as his early-’80s run was gathering steam, with the tune riding a sharp, guitar-led late-roots groove that keeps the arrangement moving without crowding his voice. Jah Thomas’ “Nite Life” shifts the mood into deejay territory, while Scientist’s mix version closes the set and gives the riddim a proper studio finish rather than just leaving the vocal cut to carry it alone. JB Music’s 1980 production keeps the whole thing lean, with just three tracks on the release.
