Man Of The Living Riddim – Yabby You

Man Of The Living produced by Vivian Jackson, Leroy Smart for Yabby You in 1973

Man Of The Living Riddim dates to 1973 and comes from Vivian Jackson, better known as Yabby You, with Leroy Smart also credited on the production. The three-track set pairs King Tubby and Yabby U’s King Tubby’s Special with Wayne Wade’s title cut and Leroy Smart’s 1977 Rasta Man, so it moves between early roots spacing, deejay-style dub energy, and a later vocal revisit on the same framework. Yabby You’s name sits close to some of the most important roots recordings of the era, and this one keeps that Waterhouse-era weight in a compact form.
