Produced by Sonia Pottinger for High Note, That’s Life dates to 1968 and sits right in the heart of her rocksteady-era catalogue, where clean vocal cuts and tight Lynn Taitt and the Jets backing were a big part of the label sound. Delano Stewart’s title track anchors the riddim, with Big Youth and The Gaytones on Facts Of Life, Echo Minott’s Bubbling, and Tony Tuff’s Mix Me Down showing how the same foundation kept working across different eras. It’s a compact four-track set, but the blend of 1960s rocksteady with later dancehall voices makes it easy to recognise and gives the riddim a long shelf life.
