1971 was a turning point for roots-era dancehall, and Derrick Morgan’s Let The Power Fall rhythm sits right in that moment with a militant, driving groove that still feels lean and direct. The cut list leans hard into conscious and crowd-moving material: Bill Gentles’ “Take The Rod From Off Our Back” and Derrick Morgan’s own “Give Thanks” set the tone, while Dillinger’s “Cocky Bully” and “Festival Rock” push the rhythm into rougher, more playful territory. Max Romeo’s “Let The Power Fall On I” is the anchor here, carrying that political weight the title promised, and the Hippy Boys’ “Flower Power” keeps the instrumental side of things in view, letting the riddim breathe and show its shape before U Roy Junior closes it out with “Aunt Kereba. ”
