1976’s Roots Natty Congo Riddim comes from Bunny Striker Lee on the Striker Lee, Penguin, Justice setup, carrying a strong roots-to-dub feel with voices and versions from Dennis Alcapone, Dillinger, Jackie Mittoo, Jah Stitch, Johnny Clarke, the Aggrovators, and a dub cut in the mix. The set includes key cuts like Johnny Clarke’s Roots, Natty Roots, Natty Congo, Dillinger’s African World Wide and Bongo Man, plus Jackie Mittoo’s Congoman, while Jah Stitch’s 1977 entries keep the African theme moving forward. Bunny Lee’s production ties it all together, and the riddim sits firmly in his late-’70s run of spare, heavy Jamaican work that kept the same foundation useful across singers, deejays, and dub versions.
