Produced by King Jammy’s Records in 1978, What A Great Day Riddim brings together just three cuts and keeps the focus tight around Lacksley Castell’s What A Great Day, with dub versions Great Day Dub and Slaughterhouse Five filling out the set. It sits in the late-’70s roots period that helped define Jammy’s early catalog, before he became widely known as a major force in dancehall. Castell’s vocal cut is the key piece here, and the version mix gives the riddim a stripped, studio-driven feel that connects straight from roots vocal to dub treatment.
What A Great Day Riddim Tracklist:
- Dub – Great Day Dub (1980)
- Dub – Slaughterhouse Five (1978)
- Lacksley Castell – What A Great Day (1978)
