Phoenix Riddim – Unknown Label

Phoenix produced by Derrick Harriott for Unknown Label in 1969

Phoenix Riddim, issued in 1969 and produced by Derrick Harriott, pairs just two cuts: Glenn Cambell’s By The Time I Get To Phoenix and Noel Browne’s Phoenix. It’s a compact, singer-led set rather than a crowded studio workout, with the familiar song title theme tying the sides together and giving the release a neat, easy hook. Harriott was already one of the sharpest producers of the era, and this one sits comfortably among his late-’60s roots-era productions, with Noel Browne’s Phoenix carrying the riddim title itself and Glenn Cambell’s cover adding the standout crossover touch.
