I was in Jamaica in 1984 - this tune was on every jukebox pon the island. The first UK artist to get to No. 1 in the Jamaican charts if I'm not mistaken. Got the 12" when I got back to London!
When people talk about Jay Z is the Best lyrcist ever it mek I whan shed eye water my youth. Dillinger, Lone Ranger and Philip Levi are the BEST MC's Ever. Member dat bloodclaat-ah wooh
this is when our music was pure.things have change since ,dissing our women,promoting murder,don manship.we are paying with our lives in today jamaica.may god help our land and purge our leaders from corruption.
if you like this tune check out its influence on modern danchall. listen to busy signal's tune - government gone lu lu.(dec 2009) he uses the fasttalking pattern from this tune exactly. papa levi through busy signal , when something ram it ram forever !
seriously this was the first reggae song i ever heard that i actually liked. (people might flip when i say this but ive never been a big bob marley fan)
Had this on a white lable as a kid, does anyone know what was on the flip side, went something like ..."the time is just past 4.20, newsflash come upon my phillips TV" what's it called ?
Just listen to the lyrics and this is from the rahted 80s LEVI ya bloodclart big!!!!!! its so sad that we have fools like dizzy rascal chatting bare fuckries
Gwaan Papa Levi...I remember Saxon sound system back in the day. Challenging Papa Charjan and dem bwoys from Tottenham ~(Broadwater Farm). North London vv South London sound clashes, they were da bomb!
factorypresets, I think the tune your thinking of is called SENSIMILLIA, but the lyrics are GET IT FROM THE COOLER VENDOR, LORD SAY JAH JAH ARE THE SENDER, I had this on a white label quite a few years ago, but havent heard it for a long time now, good luck in finding it
Of course, a white label. No wonder I can't find it in shops, etc. Those are deffo the lyrics, alright. One summer it was everywhere so I didn't buy it. Then it just vanished without a trace.
Darkwon if you post that up you would be a complete star.
I know that tune - I'm sure it was on the same original vinyl disc as Philip Levi's Mi God Mi King. Yes, I remember having to flip the 12" in order to get the Maxi Priest cut . In fact it may have actually been a 10" vinyl - remember them - lol
the first deejay to introduce "the fast style" closely followed by asha senator and saxon sound emcees which is where papa levi is from. lewisham south east london uk
this is the jam!!! maxi preist produced this joint....i remember hearin' this when i was little cause my dad has this record on the mango label...the b-side is wikked...phillip levi is that dude!!!...
@Trikkyboy Yeah he is British he is my Friends Uncle, he is from the Saxon Sound System, and is the ONLY, British artist to have a number 1 record in Jamaica
but wen him si sun him cyaah tek dat waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah levy nuh ramp. rememba when him dun di whola di soun dem inna brooklyn. peter metro and yellowman use to pirate him baaaaaaaaad.
