Slaving Riddim – Powerhouse, Pantomine

Slaving produced by Keith Gorgon, Stephen King, Sugar Minott, Glen Brown, George Phang, The Youth Promotion Band, Big Youth, Augustus Clarke, Lloyd Parks, Linval Thompson, Brad Osborne, Roy Cousins, Carol East, Dean Wauchope for Powerhouse, Pantomine in 1973

Slaving Riddim – Powerhouse, Pantomine is a 1973 roots-heavy set produced for Powerhouse and Pantomine, with Lloyd Parks’ original Slaving at its core and plenty of versions and vocal spins around it. The lineup pulls in Augustus Pablo, Big Youth, Barry Brown, I-Roy, Glen Brown and Linval Thompson, while the tracklist also circles key cuts like Chain Gang Dub, Next Door Girl, No More Slavery, South East Rock and Africa We Want To Go. Glen Brown’s Pantomine work gives the whole project its shape, and the mix of deejay cuts, dubs and singer turns makes it feel like a snapshot of early-70s Jamaican studio culture rather than just another riddim collection.
