Rooted in Coxsone Dodd’s Studio One, Zion Higher Riddim dates from 1977 and pairs Burning Spear’s Zion Higher with Im and Dave’s Nite Ride, giving the rhythm a clean roots-era balance between militant vocal fire and a lighter, instrumental-side feel. Burning Spear was already one of Studio One’s key voices by that point, and the cut fits neatly into the label’s late-70s run of conscious reggae coming out of Brentford Road.
