500 copies only of this long lost tune from Bristol's reggae heritage. Recorded in 1982. Produced and mixed by Rob Smith and previously unreleased. The recordings originate from a session one afternoon in late 1982 when three members of Bristol's Arts Opportunity Theatre set about recording a track they'd written. With just 3 people and limited equipment, they made a strength of their limitations and in doing so came up with something unique for the time. In many ways Feel It pre-empts the small studio, no budget DIY approach that from the late eighties which would see a UK led roots reggae revival spread as an antidote to the direction Jamaican dancehall reggae was then travelling, further and further away from the seventies roots sound. Whilst the low budget home studio approach looks to the future and the early drum machine beats place it firmly in 1982 the lyrics are classic roots reggae: Referencing slavery and making clear those responsible are the ones who will feel it with punishment in the afterlife. The real icing on the cake is that this is that rarest of offerings a female roots vocal ably handled by future Restriction vocalist Sis Jendayi. In addition to the vocal there are three dub mixes perhaps the earliest available examples of Rob Smith productions.
