Derrick Morgan
Derrick Morgan - Original Reggae Recordings From 1968 -70 - Topbeat
- Trybute- CD.
When people speak about the huge volumes of music released by Gregory,
Dennis & Frankie Paul. They should also include this man. In the
sixties alone his output could have took him to the moon and back.
This album is a fantastic selection from him all self produced in the
reggae style of the late sixties. So here you will find 'Fat Man' and
versions, Seven Letters, Moon Hop, plus about twenty odd more classic
reggae tracks.
Derrick Morgan - Forward March - Beverley's
From the early sixties to the mid seventies Derrick Morgan was a very
prolific recording artist, even by reggae standards. His biggest hits
were initally produced by Leslie Kong, who produced this album. Then
Prince Buster. Then Bunny Lee, before Derrick finally turned to self
production. This album is very typical of his early work. And includes
notable early sixties ska hits like 'Housewife's Choice' (a duet with
Patsy), 'Blazing Fire', and 'Forward March'. All delivered in that
very stated style.
