Description

More vinyl reissues from Greensleeves. Mouse and the Man is the 1983 dancehall classic from the one and only Eek-A-Mouse Roots Radics in full effect, produced by Linval Thompson at Channel One and mixed by Soldgie. It includes the hit single Terrorists In The City.

The sing-jay innovator follows up his breakthrough Wa-Do-Dem release with this quality outing from 1983. And while he keeps the dread rhythms of the singular Roots Radics band, Eek switches producers to revisit some earlier triumphs with Linval Thompson at the board. Thompson weaves a tough and spacious sonic background similar to another of Eeks important producers of the time, Henry Junjo Lawes. Highlights include the title track, Stadium Hot, and Schoolboy. A top Eek-A-Mouse release. ~ Stephen Cook
