Radiation Roots present a reissue of
Junior Keatting
's
Weekend Lover
, originally released in 1980. During the late 1970s, deejay-turned-producer
Jah Thomas
played a key role in the emerging dancehall movement, harnessing the
Roots Radics
at Channel One studio for rough-edged futuristic rhythms that became platforms for songs of everyday life. Junior Keating's solid debut LP
Weekend Lover
gathered popular singles such as "Watch What You Do", which implored upright living, and lovers' laments "Long Long Time" and "Something Is Bugging Me"; "Conquering Lion" showed that the versatile singer was also adept at deep roots tunes. With a tough mix by
Scientist
at
King Tubby
's studio and additional editing by
Bullwackie
, this superb offering is of massive appeal to all fans of late roots and foundation dancehall.
