"The harder they fall" brought me to this gem.... Such a dope movie btw

One of the most magnificent voices in reggae.

Aswad released Love Fire on their CBS album, New Chapter in 1981, recorded in the CBS studios in London. Dennis Brown first heard the riddim during a sound check, Dennis had just returned from his vist to Ethiopia which inspired the song. Aswad along with Michael Campbell took Dennis to Basing Street Studio to record for Simba Productions in 1983 ❤

Just got my old reggae 12inchers out which I haven't played for over 20 years since my record player bust😂. Forgot what a fantastic record this was. Dennis Brown's (RIP) wonderful velvet voice and Aswad at the controls. Classic

My grandparents made the journey with my father in 1960 when my father was only 4 years old... from Lucea to the UK and from the UK to Ghana. Today I am truly African and Jamaican.

Reggae Runnings with RAS REGG!!! As soon as I hear that bass line, it takes me back to my youth in St. Thomas, U.S.V.I. Good memories listening to this on the radio.

Thank you, Netflix, for the cinematic masterpiece, 'The Harder They Fall.' Exceptional soundtrack.

These voices and bass lines/ rhythms can never stale, still vibing in 2020

[lornapercival-pkek]

I am listening to this tune. Feeling so calm & thoughtful. Another classic. Dennis Brown was the man with the power to make you think. I grow up with Aswad. We use hear them rehearsing. Lovely. ❤

You know a great singer when you hear him, he does not sound like anybody else.

MY promise land is both spiritual and physical, resides in my heart and my mind.
