IT'S IMPOSSIBLE * DELROY WILSON * DOCTOR BIRD 1022 * UK
Delroy Wilson's voice sounds like he is singing from across a time barrier or some form of force field, as his voice is perfectly audible but never the less seems disconnected from the musical backing. For me, this effect, real or imagined, gives the cut, an early Rock Steady rhythm, an un-quantifiable extra dimension both aurally and lyrically.
