Those Guys produced by Duke Reid, Blackbeard, RPM Inc., Jimmy Ricks, Wade Brammer, Bunny Striker Lee for Treasure Isle, Mr. Tipsy, Peckings, Insight, Jet Star in 1968
Produced by Duke Reid for Treasure Isle, Those Guys Riddim traces back to 1968 and keeps a strong rocksteady core while pairing the original Sensations cut with later roots and revival versions from artists like The Melodians, Bitty McLean and The Supersonics, Luciano, Natty King, Pat Kelly, and Tony Rebel. The best-known anchor here is The Sensations’ Those Guys, with The Melodians’ Come Back Girl and Bitty McLean’s Baby Tonight also giving the set clear standout moments. Duke Reid’s Treasure Isle catalogue is one of the key foundations of Jamaican rocksteady, and this package leans on that classic vocal harmony sound while stretching it across different eras of reggae interpretation.
