BLACK, IKA
Ika Black is a London born female singer who started her singing career in 1979 with the release of “Goodbye Little Man”. It was a smash hit. The credits went to „Sister Love“ what are Ika Black on lead vocals and Carol Williams and Sandra Williams on harmony vocals. This song was released in UK, Jamaica, France, Germany, Holland, Belgium and America. “Every Bit Of My Heart” was the follow up hit release in 1980. “Human Life” was Ika Black´s first self-production for her I-ONE-I label in 1981. In 1983 “Crucial World” was released, followed in 1986 by the album “Special Love” containing all their hits. At least „Goodbye Little Man“ appears on this album in a new mix. So far I know there are no further releases of Ika Black.

First released in 1976 on UK Slate 7´´.
Also released in 1977 on Belgium Music Master Disco Service / Fonior 511010/1, 7´´ on blue clear vinyl.
“Sticks Man” is a double entendre taken from trinidian calypso and on one sight is related to the trinidian stick fighting tradition. The second meaning should be obvious for all men. This play with words seems to come from the calypso recording “Stickman” by Zandolie in 1966.
