    Gatzara Records is proud to present 'The Best Girl' 'an excellent tune accompanied by the prodigious instrumentalist Irene Reig.

    The Best Girl' is a rework of Dave & Ansel Collins, a groove destined for lovers of old-school rocksteady.

    Due to the authentic rocksteady sound and Irene Reig's beautiful sax, it's hard to believe that this song was recorded during the year 2022.

    Just by turning it over, we find its respective version. An extremely heavy dub, a version mixed by Sergio Caño in the style of Tubby's early work, using only analogue effects like spring reverb, delay and high-pass-filter, less is more.
