(7") HORACE MARTIN - SOUND BOY STYLE / CLEVIE & DANNY - DUB STYLE VERSION
A riddim with a long history. First created by Glen Brown in 1977, when Glenroy Richards recorded Wicked Can’t Run Away, it later took its name of Green Bay riddim in January 1978, after the Green Bay Massacre, when Tapper Zukie voiced Green Bay Murder and Big Youth followed with Green Bay Killing. The next year, in 1979, Wayne Jarrett recorded Youth Man, finally giving it the name it is mostly known with today: Youthman riddim. A decade later, in 1987, Horace Martin added his own chapter: Sound Boy Style. Produced by Derrick Harriott and recorded in only one take at Augustus “Gussie” Clarke’s Music Works Recording Studio with Sly Dunbar on drums and Robbie Shakespeare on bass. Once again, Horace stands as the champion of dancehall: when the champion a play, sound boy run away.
