1960

SILKY * CLUE J. & HIS BLUES BLASTERS * BLUE BEAT 17 * UK

An early Coxsone Dodd production released on his Worldisc label this instrumental features an all star line up lead by double bassist Cluett Johnson. Clue J., as he was known, played a crucial role in the early days at Studio1, and although the music was still heavily influenced by American R&B at this time it was none the less being subtly and creatively taken in a new and original direction by him and others like guitarist Ernest Ranglin pianist Aubry Adams, both members of The Blues Blasters.
