• Roy Richards – Summertime
    • Sound Dimension – Soulful Strut
    • 1. Roy Richards – Summertime
    • 2. Sound Dimension – Soulful Strut

    Taken straight from its master tape, Summertime is a masterpiece that condensed the splendor of the blinded harmonica maestro and famed vocalist, Roy Richards. Originally released in 1968 by Young Holt Unlimited and scored a big hit, this great cover of the Soul classic, which sounds easily fitting the pattern of Sir Coxsone’s taste who was the huge fan of US hits, was played loosely and effortlessly by then newly formed Sound Dimension.
