Are there lots of rastafarians in London?
I like this track. Drip drip drip drop. Melodically it's pretty simple, but that guitar reinforces the mood by just echoing the vocal melody. The backbeat organ is a bit unusual: one would expect a more Hammond like sound. This one disappears a little in the mix. But hey, it's not authentic reggae, right? So everything is allowed.

Cool stuff.

Thanks Jojo
I live and work a 3 minute walk away from Chapel Market. You're not missing much. Your home surroundings look beautiful and a million miles from Islington, London, must be an interesting story there.

nice breaks
Like the jazzy keyboard playing.. For some reason I foun d the lyrics and yur style of singing slightly cynically comical in a kind of Paul Merton way.Give me a break - I've woken up and thought that without even getting out of bed on occasions and reach for the half empty bottle of whiskey on the window ledge.(Only on occasions mind you) (:

Nice one Len, I like reggae songs and this has a lovely feel to it. Well done and good work. I just wish I could get this depth of quality myself. Still I'm learning bit by bit.
