SMITH, MICHAEL
Artist Info: Dub Poet. His album is recorded in England, UK, produced by Linton Kwesi Johnson and Dennis Bovell who also plays bass, keyboards and percussion. Drums by Angus Gaye and piano by Tony Robinson, both from Aswad. Trombone by Rico Rodriguez, drums by Tony Nelson (on Give Me Little Dub Music). Flugelhorn by Patrick Tenyue, trombone by Henry Tenyue, guitar by John Kpiaye, all members of the Dennis Bovell Dub Band, the band playing at all Linton Kwesi Johnson albums. Saxophone by Steve Gregory, keyboards by Paget King, percussion by Everald Forrest, Tony Utah. Mixed by Dennis Bovell. Released in UK by Island and in USA by Island / Mango. All songswritten by Michael Smith. Like Linton Kwesi Johnson he is singing in jamaican patois which can be understood while reading the given vocals at the record sleeve. The title track and the song Roots is reduced to the very heart, as they are a-capella sermons, strong supported by vocal art of Michael Smith. When he sings: “.. An dem a roots… lawwwwwwwwwwwd ” , this will be remembered even without any music. Sad that his hopeful carreer was brutally stopped when he became victim of a murder not long after this recording was made. So this remains his only album. It made him one of the ancestors of Dub Poetry as better-known singers like Mutabaruka give respect to this man to the recent day.
