Love Is A Treasure produced by Sidney Crooks, Duke Reid, Carlton Patterson, Pancho Alphonso, Wade Brammer for Treasure Isle, Black, White, Love People, Insight in 1967
Rooted in 1967 rocksteady, Love Is A Treasure Riddim gathers versions from Treasure Isle and related labels with production linked to Sidney Crooks, Duke Reid, Carlton Patterson, Pancho Alphonso, and Wade Brammer. The cut pulls together voices like B. Seaton and Freddie McKay on Love Is A Treasure, later revivals from Johnny Clarke, Lizzy, Michael Scotland, and Natty King, plus Pancho Alphonso and The Revolutionaries on Love Is A Pleasure. It’s a tidy reminder of how that Treasure Isle-era song kept travelling across generations and labels, with the original Freddie McKay and B. Seaton sides giving the set its strongest classic foundation.
