Love Is Not A Gamble Riddim comes from Jammys Records and is tied to King Jammy’s late-’80s dancehall run, with the post placing it around 1987 and the wider release window stretching into 1990. It pulls together a strong lineup of early digital-era cuts from Admiral Bailey, Ninjaman, Shabba Ranks, Frankie Paul, Josey Wales, Pad Anthony, Singing Melody, and Admiral Tibet, with Girl Yuh Body Good, Wicked Inna Bed, and Test The High Power among the standout tunes. The rhythm was built for the raw, fast-moving sound Jammy helped define, and it turns up in versions from both big-name DJs and singers, which gives the set a sharp mix of deejay energy and melodic hooks.
