Testify Riddim – Revolutionary Sounds

Testify Riddim from Revolutionary Sounds is a 1978 release produced by Donovan Germain, with Lone Ranger, Prince Mohamed and The Tamlins among the voices on the rhythm. The cut list includes Lone Ranger’s Jamaican Weed, Prince Mohamed’s Don’t Trouble Trouble and The Tamlins’ title track Testify, giving the set a compact roots-era feel with a strong culture message running through it. Germain’s early work here connects to the same deep production lane he would later carry through Penthouse, and this one captures that late-’70s Jamaican sound in a simple, focused way.
