This track can be found in “Singles Mixer Vol. 1”
A pretty depressing couple of events last week with the passing of two luminaries Fred Shuttlesworth and the passing of Sylvia Robinson along with endless videos of police brutality surfacing every ten minutes calls for a deep moment of silence and reflection and then the necessary re-bounce brought to you today by The Meditations.
The Meditations “Rebounce” appears on this Basic Channel re-issue of the 1982 “I Love Jah” sessions recorded in the states at Llyod “Bullwackie” Barnes’ studio / record label / storefront after he too moved from Jamaica and set up shop in the Boogie Down Bronx.
Before moving to the states The Meditations were a very able set of voices that were used in sessions with all the major figures of Reggae from Rasta-fied Roots to Dub with The Congos, Lee Perry and Bob Marley all calling on their unique talents live and in the studio.
The Meditations made any number of deep contributions and continue to play today (with a modified line up) but it’s thier line “open your heart and let me come right in there” that are carrying their weight today.
