"An all-time favorite New York dancehall tune, finally back again. 20+ years ago, in a different era of reggae record collecting where there was little to no information to be found about so many '80s reggae records, the original 12" single of this one was a mythical tune. In fact, this one was on the earliest DKR wish lists, but all good things take time. Most followers know Junior's digital masterpiece 'Rampers Music.' But this one is his earliest and first tune, a heavy piece of a rub a dub cut at Munchie Jackson's Sunshine Studio in the Bronx, with Jackie Mittoo at the helm of the session. The original 12" was self-released by Junior on his own label in 1985. The lyrics are a great snapshot of mid '80s New York, a nod to all those making their way, for better or worse, thru the posses and cliques of the Jamaican scene of the day."
