Ken Boothe, "Freedom Day"

KOSMO's VINYL of the Week:
This week we are in Federal Studios on Marcus Garvey Drive, Kingston, Jamaica for Ken Boothe's "Freedom Day" (AKA "Freedom Time") first released on his 1976 Lloyd Charmers produced LP "Blood Brothers"...

"Known as "Mr Rock Steady" from the early 1960s, Ken Boothe is not a name you associate with the more militant style of Reggae popularised by Rastafarians in the 1970s. But on this track, Ken's unique voice is put to great use, co-written with producer Charmers. Introduced to me by the ever spinning deejay Barry "Scratchy" Myers." - KV
