1977 roots reggae from Bunny Striker Lee, Live Up Jah Man brings together Johnny Clarke’s title cut and the dubby version excursion A Living Version from King Tubby and Prince Jammy. The riddim is a compact two-track set, and the title tune is also known from the deeper Bunny Lee catalog as Down in a Babylon, which underlines how central Clarke’s voice was to this rhythm. With its heavy roots feel and sound-system-minded version side, this release sits right in Bunny Lee’s classic late-70s run, when his productions were shaping some of the era’s hardest Kingston cuts.
