By 1978, the Real Rock rhythm was already a foundation tune in reggae, and Emmanuel Music taps right into that deep-running Studio One lineage with a version that keeps the bass firm and the groove open enough for the singers and deejays to stretch out. Dennis Brown’s “Stop The Fussing And Fighting” is the emotional anchor here, while Junior Mervin’s “Cool Out Son” and Welton Irie’s “Nice Up The Dance” lean into the tougher, dancehall-facing side of the riddim, with Joe Tex and U Black adding a sharper deejay counterpoint on “Friday Evening. ” The cut is all about how naturally that riddim carries different voices without losing its shape, from rootsy singing to sound system talk. Tracklist: Dennis Brown, Joe Tex and U Black, Junior Mervin, and Welton Irie.
