Seven inch vinyl pressing of this 2014 release that sees the return of one of the original stars of Reggae, Dave Barker, backed by Irish 8 piece band, Supertonic Sound Club. Dave Barker is one of the legends of Jamaican reggae music. As part of Dave & Ansell Collins, he scored a UK No. 1 in 1971 with 'Double Barrel' (this was also the very first reggae track to break the US Billboard Top 40!) and another UK Top 10 hit with 'Monkey Spanner'. Dave also played with the Techniques and the Selector and has a string of solo releases including 'Prisoner of Love' and 'Shocks of Mighty'. Supertonic Sound Club are a Dublin based band who play a mix of old school soul-funk and reggae/ska. They are a relatively new band but have recorded radio sessions for the BBC and RTE, earning them rave reviews. Members of Supertonic Sound Club have performed with Oasis, Van Morrison and a host of other international artists.
