Produced by Coxsone Dodd for Studio One in 1971, Make Up Riddim pulls together a tight set of classic roots-era cuts, with John Holt’s Fancy Make Up, Jennifer Lara’s My Man My Man, and Sound Dimension’s Black Treasure among the key tunes tied to it. It also links neatly to the wider Studio One catalogue through players like Rolando Alphonso and Ronnie Davis, giving the riddim that unmistakable Kingston studio feel of warm horns, deep groove, and lean instrumentation. The result is a very period-specific Studio One pattern that captures the label’s early-1970s sound in a straightforward, memorable way.
