WHAT A MAN DOETH * ERIC MORRIS * ISLAND 151 * UK

Eric 'Monty' Morris, in his didactic style'e, with a great Ska vocal. Eric Morris was very much part of the Pre Ska and Ska era, who wrote and sung about his principles and morals, usually with reference to the bible, proverbs, or just well known Jamaican sayings, much of which is sound ethics. I, for one, have no problem with the sentiments of the above record, which unfortunately makes this little page a bit of an unsettling tautology for me.
