THIS riddim highlights the ultimate sharing of riddims between performers. It was first heard in 1967 from Three Tops' "It's Raining," produced by Arthur "Duke" Reid on the Treasure Isle Label, it has continued skanking speakers through the '70s , '80s, '90s, and most recently with Natural Black's 2007 tune "Cry Cry Baby" produced by Lloyd ‘King Jammy’ James, Wycliffe ‘Steely’ Johnson and Cleveland ‘Clevie’ Browne. Check out the the full cast here because there are TOO many to list. My favorites on this riddim, and a MUST hear would be: Three Tops - "It's Raining," Clint Eastwood & General Saint - "Banana Export," and Billy Boyo- "Look How She Fat." Don't pass by Norris Man, Morgan Heritage, Richie Spice or Anthony B on this riddim either. Wow! What a great one!!!! ENJOY!
