Sponji Reggae produced by Sly Dunbar, Robbie Shakespeare for Island in 1981
Produced by Sly Dunbar and Robbie Shakespeare for Island in 1981, Sponji Reggae brings together Black Uhuru on a lean early-’80s roots cut that also turns up as the discomix version on the release. The riddim is anchored by the title track, with Convoy Hijack as the other key cut, and it captures the period when Black Uhuru were pushing deeper into their Island-era international run. Sly and Robbie’s hand is all over the sound here, giving the tune that crisp, heavy pulse that made their productions such a big part of reggae’s crossover years.
