I have their only LP "Motion" and it is IMO one of finest albums in my collection! That album got a bit of everything of my favorite genres - Reggae, dub, funk, RnB, soul and blues! Love it!
Another great lovers track this time former Aswad band member George Oban steps up to produce what is a master piece featured here on drums is Angus gaye also a founder of Aswad whose drummimg is as always exemplary listen if you can to the album by Oban called MOTIONS also with Angus Gaye on drums its magic another great one for your collection must Burning Spear live at the Rainbow Theatre backed by Aswad Gaye gives a drumming master class on that one he and Oban are some of the cream of british musicians.
Christopher Matthias i love the Motion album ! i think George Oban was a founding member of Aswad but may be wrong, no man is an island is just gorgeous imo
O>>>>>>>>>>>M>>>>>>>>>>>>>G i havent heard this tune in yearsssssssssssssss thanx for uploading brings back sweettttttttttttttttt memories tht i will never forget, BLESS!!!
George Oban was the original bass player from aswad ..he left to do this project beautiful fusion of jazz and reggae what a classic and rare album.. The keyboard player took over on bass This is one of the directions british reggae should have gone.. I m hoping to up load some tracks from the album soon
Love the bass and drums on this. Memories dancing to this especially the instrumental part towards the end. If you never know how to dance - Nuh budda cos woman will walk lef yu😂🤣
My favourite of all time I use to have this on a white label 12" and I remember lending it out to a mate and it was one of them he never returned, he thinks I've forgotten nuff said.
SADLY HE PASSED AWAY, HAD SOME CONVERSATIONS WITH HIM THROUGH FACEBOOK FEW YEARS AGO,HE CONFESSED HE CRIED HARD WHEN HE LANDED IN THE MOTHER LAND (ETHIOPIA) , ACTUALLY SUBMERGED BY DEEP EMOTIONAL FEELING.
Cet album est une véritable merveille ! Je ne me lasse jamais de l'écouter . Produced and arranged by George Oban (of early Aswad fame), it featured some excellent other tunes like Basshoven .
I just keep remembering the races on Ferry Lane coming back from Waltham Forest collage dance and "Oh Georgie Georgie"(Sir George) @ Cubies, Lodrick nuff people remember you on da mike.
There's nothing to say as it's all been said in the previous comments. The baseline on this is heaaavy. Just love when it goes into dub. Love their tune No man's an island which is my favourite tune of all time
Album also features Aswads own tony robinson keys and vocals (ended up on bass for aswad) Angus 'Drummie Gaye drums and vocals there is reggae, dub, rock, latin, folk, funk, and jazz on this amazing album check out this bosanova beat ....in dub wicked
