    Police And Thieves Overview

    Fans welcomed the Police And Thieves riddim as a fresh wave in reggae music. From the start, its sound struck a chord with listeners, who quickly made it a favorite at dances and on sound systems. The riddim’s influence is still strong today, with selectors playing it in sets across the world. Artists brought their own style to the project. Bad Weed teamed up with Junior Murvin, whose voice is known from the classic hit “Police And Thieves.” Earl Smith & The Upsetters delivered “Bingo Kid,” showing off Smith’s famous guitar work—he is also known for his role in many reggae classics. Grumblin' Dub joined with The Upsetters, a group led by legendary producer Lee “Scratch” Perry, who shaped the sound of reggae in the 1970s. Junior Murvin appears again on “Philistines On The Land,” adding his signature falsetto. Magic Touch worked with Glen Dacosta, a respected saxophonist from the reggae scene. The label behind the recording is UPSETTERS RECORDS, known for its deep roots in reggae history.
