Top top version by Slim of one of the best Deep Soul tunes around, this was originally done by Jimmy Holiday and that version is great too, heart wrenching stuff, I'm a massive reggae fan but i gotta say I like the Jimmy Holiday just a bit more, check it out its on you tube , i love them both though, but this is one of the best Soul Reggae covers I've ever heard, and I've heard a lot!!
Slim Smith died November 10, 1972. the story in The Gleaner was that he was in his apartment and was upset, broke a window and subsequently cut himself. he refused any treatment, and was found dead the following day. the reason for his distress was not given, although he died inside his apartment. he was buried in May Pen Cemetery the following Sunday.
I've got to thank David rodigan's real authentic reggae for Enlightening me about this track.Soon as i heard it i loved it...In fact it was the stand out track for me,the 1 on repeat...
oh yes what a tune what more can anyone say a true master of is art will sadly be missed rest in peace slim smith gone from this world but will never be forgotten jah live.
you are so right browning! i get sad when i think about slim's premature death. he was just starting to really incorporate righteousness, consciousness, and universal love into his songs. his last songs were arguably his greatest and most inspiring. i believe he was on the cusp of something similiar 2 what happened to bob marley, where all of a sudden it seemed to click for bob and he went down the path of a universal spirituality that could connect all people. slim and bob were kindred spirits.

without a doubt the biggest loss in the history of reggae music... hands down the best singer ever.

Can you imagine the tunes we would have had the pleasure of listening to had he been around longer. So young, yet such a huge loss to reggae music.
