RELEASE DATE

Radiation Roots present a reissue of
Cornell Campbell
's
Dance In A Greenwich Farm
, originally released in 1975. As noted on another release -- see
Ropin'
(RR 307CD/LP) -- Cornell Campbell has enjoyed one of the longest-running careers of any Jamaican singer, and he is blessed with a readily identifiable style too. He began his career for
Clement "Sir Coxsone" Dodd
in 1956, when rhythm and blues held sway in Jamaica, and later cut some ska songs for
King Edwards
. He then passed through the
Sensations
in the rock steady phase and worked as a solo singer at Treasure Isle, before returning to Studio One with the
Eternals
, scoring huge hits such as "Stars" and "Queen Of The Minstrel" as the '60s gave way to the '70s. His greatest phase of popularity was then brokered by hit-making producer
Bunny Lee
, who kept him on top right through the 1970s and into the '80s. The 1975 album
Dance In A Greenwich Farm
was first issued on the Grounation label in the UK. Along with a reworking of "Stars", retitled "The Sun", a reworking of "Queen Of The Minstrel", as "Girl Of My Dreams", and the sound system opus that is the title track, the album also has the boastful "Conquering Gorgon" and a number of keenly-observed cover tunes, including a cut of the
Gaylads
' "No Good Girl", a version of the
Heptones
' "Why Did You Leave Me" and a killer cut of the
Uniques
' "Watch This Sound" (based on "For What It's Worth" by
Buffalo Springfield
).
