    • Jacob Miller & The Inner Circle – Ghetto On Fire (Version)
    • 1. Ghetto On Fire
    • 2. Ghetto On Fire (Version)

    A fierce reflection of Kingston’s down town strife from Jacob Miller. Miller was a downtown Ghetto dweller that had managed to work himself into the bohemian uptown scene. Junior Delgado had apparently come to a session as Kingston’s Ghetto was on fire and imbued a Miller/Inner Circle recording session with a tale of apocalyptic doom from downtown. Crackling gunfire then ‘Uptown downtown all around town fire fire’ sings Miller as the Lewis brothers rhythm section kicks in.
