MARCIA GRIFFITHS NATURALLY * * * /
Marcia Griffiths was not only a member of the Marley
back singers group the I-Threes. She was even a successful performer
in the 70's and without doubts one of the greatest female singers
in Jamaica ever. This set is based on reinterpretations of her Studio
One hits from the Rocksteady - early Reggae period. Seven songs on
ten are Bob Andy's tracks. Including "Feel Like Jumping"
which would later reappear after the original release as the Mytals'
hit "54-46 (That's My Number)" under Leslie Kong controls.
"Dreamland" is a song from Bunny
Wailer. "Lonesome Feeling" is from Bunny and Bob. "Sweet
Sensation" is a Melodians tune. The backing musicians are the
Revolutionaries and as expected they perform perfectly. This set was
produced by Sonia Pottinger. A nostalgic album. |
