Livin' on free food tickets Water in your milk from a hole in the roof Where the rain come through What can you do, uh-huh Tears from your little sister Cryin' because she doesn't have a dress without a patch For the party tonight But she knows she'll get by 'cause she's Livin' with the love of the common people Smile from the heart of the family man Daddy's gonna buy you a dream to cling to Mama's gonna love you just as much as she can, as she can It's a good thing you don't have bus fares It'll fall through the hole in your pocket And you'll lose it on the stone on the ground Gotta walk into town to find a job Tryin' to keep your hands warm When the hole in your shoe lets the snow come through And it chills you to the bone So now you'd better go home, where it's warm, and you'll be Livin' with the love of the common people Smile from the heart of the family man Daddy's gonna buy you a dream to cling to Mama's gonna love you as much as she can, as she can Livin' on a dream ain't easy but the closer the knit The tighter the fit and the chill stay away Keep the man's strive, the family pride You know that faith is your foundation With a whole lotta love and a warm conversation But don't forget to turn Makin' you strong where you belong and you're Livin' with the love of the common people Smile from the heart of the family man Daddy's gonna buy you a dream to cling to Mama's gonna love you just as much as she can, as she can

& 1972” the years covered by this new Boss Reggae focused
compilation.• Striker’s complete mastery of the new reggae rhythms
and “versioning them over” are showcased on this release with the
emphasis placed on the outstanding contribution of the cream of
Kingston’s session musicians
Limited edition of 1000 individually numbered copies on gold coloured
180-gram audiophile vinyl. The Ethiopians was one of Jamaica's most
popular bands during the late ska, rocksteady and early reggae periods.
With the smooth vocals of The Ethiopians in front of the mix and the
organ sound in the background, they recorded Woman Capture Man. The
album is produced by J.J. Johnson, who was a major influence on Jamaican
ska and rocksteady music during the 1960s revolution.
Das von Clement »Coxsone« Dodd gegründete Studio One
dient als umfassender Führer durch die Geschichte der Reggae-Musik. Die
Musik auf Studio One Rockers deckt alle Bereiche des Reggae wie Ska,
Rocksteady, Roots und Dancehall ab, alles Bereiche, in denen Studio One
führend war.
Studio One Rockers enthält viele legendäre Studio One-Tracks, die zum
ersten Mal von Soul Jazz Records zusammengestellt wurden. Seit den
Anfängen des Reggae, als die Skatalites 1962 einen neuen Ska-Sound
entwickelten, bis heute ist Studio One die Nummer eins in der
jamaikanischen Musik. Auf dieser Zusammenstellung sind klassische
Ska-Tracks (»Phoenix City«), Rocksteady (»Feel Like Jumping«),
Roots-Musik (»Truth and Rights«), Dancehall (Freddy McGregor, Michigan
und Smiley) und viele mehr enthalten.
Hier sind viele der klassischen Titel von Studio One zu hören. Von Dawn
Penns legendärem »No, No, No« bis zu Klassikern wie Horace Andys
»Skylarking« und Marcia Griffiths »Feel Like Jumping«. Das Coxsone
Soundsystem war in den frühen 60er Jahren neben seinen Konkurrenten
Prince Buster und Duke Reid eines der drei wichtigsten Soundsysteme in
Jamaika.
Der Katalog von Studio One ist wahrscheinlich der größte in der
jamaikanischen Musik und diese Veröffentlichung ist die erste in einer
Reihe von Studio One Compilations auf Soul Jazz Records.
