Under Jah Rock Riddim – V.I.S Records

Luciano’s title cut “Under Jah Rock” is the anchor here, and it fits the deep, rootsy mood that runs through this 2001 V. I. S Records juggling. The lineup pairs elder statesmen like Al Campbell, Alton Ellis and Gregory Isaacs with newer voices such as Mikey General, Spanner Banner and Lorna Asher, so the set moves from classic rub-a-dub phrasing into more direct conscious styles without losing its footing. It’s a straight vocal riddim release rather than a dub-heavy package, and the sequencing keeps the stronger cuts—“Cool And Deadly, ” “Talk With The Father, ” “Respect”—clustered around the centre of the set. The riddim is credited to Paul Campbell, Lorraine Stewart, Cavel Panton and Bucky Ranks under the VIS label.
