Worries In The Dance Riddim – Unknown Label

Produced by Kenneth Hookim in 1984, Worries In The Dance brings together a strong early-dancehall lineup on one rhythm, with Frankie Paul’s title cut sitting alongside versions by Anthony Johnson, Wayne Smith, Michael Palmer, Leroy Smart, Hugh Griffiths, Hopeton Junior, Patrick Andy, and Midnight Rider. The set moves between roots pressure and the sharper digital-era feel that was taking hold at the time, and the Wayne Smith, Frankie Paul, and Anthony Johnson sides are among the key cuts here. Hookim’s work under the Empire/Channel One umbrella helped define that era, and this rhythm is remembered as one of the sharper examples of his 1984 production style.
