MAMA NO FRET * ERIC MORRIS * ISLAND 147 * UK

A Duke Reid production Mama No Fret is another classy didactic Folk song from the pen of Eric Morris who's almost entire oeuvre is morally instructive. A slow heavy sounding but  restrained Ska instrumental backing, provides Eric Morris with a background on which to reassure his, and by extension all, parents that they have no need to fear or worry about their child.
