Ordinary Man produced by Clive Chin for Unknown Label in 1972
Ordinary Man Riddim, issued in 1972 and produced by Clive Chin, pairs Lloyd Parks’ title cut with two Impact All Stars versions, giving the set a tight, early-70s studio feel with just three tracks. The vocal side is carried by Parks’ straightforward Ordinary Man, while Extraordinary Version and Ordinary Version Chapter 3 lean into the rhythm-driven deejay-and-band interplay that Clive Chin was known for around this period. It’s a concise showcase of his production style and a neat example of how one strong song could anchor a small, focused riddim release.
