Description

Now seldom seen 2006 Jamaican adaptation of a Sam Cooke "popcorn" given an Island makeover - oh how good is this? No wonder the initial run sold out almost immediately and now commands an healthy cult-following for ownership. We know it an unofficial press but we thought everyone should bathe in its standout quality

Listen and prepare to be mesmerised, no matter which side you drop the arm on, like so many have before you, utterly enslaved by Coxsone Dodd's makeover bring in his studio band "Sound Dimension" to captivate you with their irresistible rhythms from Studio ? and Don Lorenzo's secretive production.

Dodd takes Sam's gorgeous 1960 ballad on RCA adding Caribbean flavours into the mix, a recipe for an enthralling mid-tempo cocktail of soulfulness crocheted into a Jamaican backdrop provided by one of the most accomplished producers and studio bands available at the time.

Two awesome sides that nearly 20 years later, this limited disc, that seldom comes to market.
