Rainbow Country Riddim – Various Labels

Rainbow Country Riddim gathers four classic takes on Bob Marley’s Rainbow Country, stretching from the original Bob Marley and The Wailers version and dub cut to Dennis Brown’s warm interpretation and Dennis “Struggle” Hamilton’s take. The post dates it to 1975, and the lineup keeps that mid-70s roots feel front and center, with Lee Perry linked to the original Bob Marley cut and a later 1995 entry tied to Dennis Brown. It’s a compact four-track set, but the pairing of Marley and Brown gives it real weight, especially on the title tune and the dub version.
