Kingston 12 Tuffie Riddim – Morwell Records

Kingston 12 Tuffie came out in 1979 on Morwell Records, produced by Blacka Morwell and centered on just two cuts: King Jammy’s Jammin For Survival and The Morwells’ Kingston 12 Tuffie. The pairing links one of the era’s key deejays with the Morwells, the Kingston group led by Blacka Morwell and Bingy Bunny, whose name is closely tied to the tough Channel One sound of the period. With only two tracks, the release keeps a tight focus and carries that late-1970s roots-reggae edge, with Kingston 12 Tuffie also known as a Morwells original and a tune that helped define the label’s catalogue.
