Love And Affection Riddim – Various Labels

Love And Affection produced by Coxsone Dodd, Pete Weston, I-Roy, Sir Harry for Studio One, Ska Beat, Black Art, Sir Harry in 1964

Love And Affection Riddim dates back to 1964 and brings together a strong early reggae and ska-era line of recordings associated with Coxsone Dodd and Studio One, alongside later cuts linked to Pete Weston, I-Roy, Sir Harry, Ska Beat, and Black Art. The selection pairs Bob Marley and The Wailers’ Love And Affection and Delroy Wilson’s I Need Your Loving with later deejay turns like I-Roy’s Tea Pot and Sir Harry’s Licking Stick, which gives the set a nice balance between singers and talkover style. It is especially rooted in the classic Studio One sound, with the Bob Marley cut and Delroy Wilson’s vocal both underlining how durable the riddim was across different eras.
