Searching Riddim (1996) – The Phantom Music

1996 reggae from The Phantom Music, Searching Riddim brings together four voices for a tight, no-frills juggling led by Frankie Paul’s Searching For Love, alongside Jimmy Riley’s You Stop Loving Me, Ninjaman’s Burial, and Prilly Hamilton’s Wild Fire. The set is credited to Noel Gray under The Phantom label, and the whole release stays compact at just four tracks, which gives it a focused feel rather than a crowded one. Frankie Paul’s cut is the obvious anchor, but the mix of smooth lovers rock, rootsier sentiment, and Ninjaman’s tougher delivery gives the riddim some real range.
