Captain Sinbad

Captain Sinbad – Again – Oak Sounds – 1983

Sinbad’s popularity as a dj with Arrows sound system, and on disc with producers like Junjo almost guaranteed that he would move into self production. This is, his first self produced set, helped by Lewin Locke & Joe Darkings. Featuring the Roots Radics band and recorded at Channel One and Joe Gibbs, with a mix at IPS in London by Captain Sinbad. It’s the kind of album that you would expect it to be at this time. The lyrics and the deejaying are very good, as are the rhythms, brought together as an whole though something is amiss."

Captain Sinbad - The Seven Voyages Of Captain Sinbad - Greensleeves

Back in the early eighties it was literally a DJ army, and if you like

the back stars like Josey, Charlie or Briggy you was safe - but and

its a very but keeping the former on their toes was this DJ Army or

the Massive. Sinbad was a part of that - and this album shows why !

He's got the style, he's got lyrics and with Junjo one of the best

producers Jamaica as ever seen. A ten track set, now extended to a 12

track set its an excellent set. Featuring all the current themes like

'Bim Salute' 'All Over', 'Wa Dat'. It was the mark of a good DJ if

they could add a little to these themes - and Sinbad does in fine

style. The artwork from Tony McDermott is excellent as are the

sleevenotes from the one Harry Hawke.
