Leggo Beast Riddim – Various Labels

Leggo Beast produced by Joe Gibbs, Coxsone Dodd, The Abyssinians, Pete Weston for Amalgamated, Studio One, Clinch, Soul Beat in 1966

Leggo Beast Riddim comes from the 1966 roots era and is linked here to Joe Gibbs, Coxsone Dodd, The Abyssinians, and Pete Weston across Amalgamated, Studio One, Clinch, and Soul Beat. The set only runs four cuts, but it pulls in some key names from the period, including Roy Shirley’s Hold Them, Ken Boothe’s Feel Good, and The Abyssinians’ own Leggo Beast. It’s a nice snapshot of mid-60s Jamaican songwriting and production, with the title cut later reappearing through The Abyssinians in 1972.
