Various – Doing Our Thing: More Soul From Jamdown 1970–82 (CD)

Island soul – Jamaican interpretations of American classics, reimagined with style.

Doing Our Thing is the second installment in Cree Records’ acclaimed series exploring Jamaican versions of U.S. soul and R&B from 1970 to 1982. Curated by reggae historian Steve Barrow, the 17-track collection showcases creative reinterpretations, not imitations.

Featuring Dave Barker, Junior Byles, BB Seaton, Augustus Pablo, Cedric Brooks, Richard Ace and more – all wrapped in a 4-panel CD digipak with a 32-page booklet of liner notes and vintage photography by Dave Hendley.

These covers transcend genre – turning American soul into deeply Jamaican expressions of rhythm, voice and sound system culture. From early roots to proto-dancehall – this is island soul with fire.

Dedicated to the memory of Dave Barker. Available on CD and 2LP.

Press - Various - Cree Records Doing Our Thing - More Soul From Jamdown - BLUES IN BRITAIN 12/17.Doing Our Thing: More Soul From Jamdown 1970 - 1982 Cree Although the influence of forties and fifties rhythm & blues on early Jamaican recorded music has been well researched over the last few decades, it is sometimes overlooked that as soul music became prominent in America, reggae was evolving in Jamaica and taking on a lot of soul influence. This set examines some of that process, every track connected w.th American soul in some way.
