RUNN Records proudly presents the
one rhythm set "10 To One". The music
of the late Curtis Mayfield has been a main influence in the history
of
Jamaican music, which was actually underlined by the release of
a
"tribute" album featuring well known reggae artists.
Especially during
the rocksteady era Jamaican performers started dipping into the
Curtis
Mayfield songbook. Tunes like "People Get Ready", "Choice
Of Colours",
"Gipsy Woman", "Queen Majesty", "You
Don't Care" and "Ten To One" are
only a few examples of covers and adaptations who proved successful
on
the Jamaican market. Many of the rhythms that were built for these
songs
have proved to be a legacy for successive generations of Jamaican
musicians and producers. Now we are treated to a brand new version
of
the "Ten To One" riddim, which was first laid at Studio
One by the Sound
Dimension and included versions by the Mad Lads, Cornell Campbell,
Prince Jazzbo and Dillinger. Last year multi-instrumentalist and
producer Barry O'Hare and Ian "Beezy" Coleman (guitarist
in Ziggy
Marley's backing band) revitalized the riddim. Twelve tracks were
voiced
at Grove Studio in Ocho Rios, Jamaica by well known artists like
LMS,
Prezident Brown, Frankie Paul and one of UK's premier vocalists
Vivian
Jones. Another five tracks on this set - featuring Panache Culture,
Original Uman, Rohan Lee, Redemption and Yoni Vidal - were done
at RUNN
Studio in The Netherlands, Europe, due to Barry O'Hare's association
with the RUNN Records label. You have the opportunity to give
