Pomps And Pride produced by Augustus Clarke, Bunny Striker Lee for Unknown Label in 1974
Produced by Augustus Clarke and Bunny Striker Lee for an unknown label in 1974, Pomps And Pride Riddim is a lean early-70s cut with just three tracks, anchored by Big Youth’s Pride And Joy Rock and Leroy Smart’s Pomps And Pride. The set also folds in King Tubby and Prince Jammy’s Channel One Under Heavy Manners, which adds a dubby, studio-crafted edge to the lineup. It’s a small but memorable slice of the era, with the rhythm tying together deejay energy, roots vocals, and Channel One-era craftsmanship in a way that suits both Big Youth’s expressive style and Leroy Smart’s sharper delivery.
