Struggling Man Riddim – Unknown Label

Struggling Man produced by Unknown Producer for Unknown Label in 1972

Struggling Man Riddim, issued in 1972 on an unknown label and credited to an unknown producer, brings together just two versions of the same tune: Jimmy Cliff’s original Struggling Man and The Cimarons’ cover. The title track sits right in Jimmy Cliff’s early-’70s run, and the Cimarons’ cut adds a rootsy band interpretation from one of the era’s key Jamaican outfits, who had already become known for backing major reggae artists. With only two selections, this is a compact single-riddim set built around one song and its twin readings.
