Nitty Gritty - Turbo Charged LP
SKU: GREL93 OverviewDescription:
Music by The Super Power All-Stars and Steely & Clevie.
Produced by King Jammy,. recorded and mixed at Prince Jammy's
Studio.
For the first time re-pressed since the initial LP-vinyl release
from 1986! "Turbo Charged" recorded in '86 for Jammy is rightfully
recognised as a genuine milestone in the history of Reggae Music,
containing the massive hits 'Hog In A Minty' (a speaker-shaking
raggamuffin mento update jemmied on to a lethal cut of the 'Tempo'
rhythm), 'Gimme Some Of Your Something', and 'Down In The Ghetto
(on the 'Satta' rhythm), 'Rub A Dub A Kill You (on the 'Rockfort
Rock' rhythm), plus 'Amazing Grace' (on the 'Java' rhythm).
Nitty Gritty's (real name: Glen Augustus Holeness) life was
tragically cut short in 1991 (he was shot dead in June 1991 in a
murky incident outside a Brooklyn Record Shop) - but this timeless
album is proof you can kill the man but not the music!
