Gregory Isaacs 2021 Birthday Mix by Rick Howe (Riddim Yard) by VP RECORDS published on 2021-07-06T17:51:35Z Join Riddim Yard's Rick Howe for a tribute to the reggae icon Gregory Isaacs. VP commissioned this special mix in honor of the singer's July 15th birthday. When it comes to sheer volume of output, Gregory Isaacs was one of Jamaica’s most prolific singers, with over 125 albums to his credit in a 40-plus year career. His 13 albums with VP rival that of Dennis Brown. VP was the first to press and distribute the seminal LP Mr. Isaacs, one of the first LPs the company handled in the US. The album included the enduring hit “Slave Master,” later popularized in the film Rockers. His other major track handled by VP (and Greensleeves) at the time of first release was the Gussie Clarke produced “Rumours” from 1988, a song written by Tetrack’s Carlton Hines. “Rumours” showed the singer in full control of the new digital reggae and dancehall sound of the late 1980s. Isaacs’ 1975 remake of Dennis Brown’s “Easy Take It Easy,” entitled “Babylon Too Rough,” has emerged as one of his most popular tracks in the digital streaming era. Rick Howe is a Melbourne, Australia based DJ and host of "Riddim Yard" heard every Friday on PBS 106.7 FM in Melbourne and online. His popular Facebook page boasts half a million followers due to well curated, regular content featuring classic reggae. https://www.pbsfm.org.au/program/riddim-yard https://www.facebook.com/riddimyardpbs/ Tracklist: 00:00 Gregory Isaacs - Tune In 03:05 Intro voiced by Rick Howe 03:42 Gregory Isaacs - Oh What A Feeling 06:54 Gregory Isaacs - Soon Forward 11:14 Gregory Isaacs - Let’s Dance 13:30 Gregory Isaacs - Universal Tribulation 16:14 Gregory Isaacs - My Religion 19:10 Gregory Isaacs - Love Is Overdue 22:05 Gregory Isaacs - The Victim 24:56 Gregory Isaacs - Rumours 28:24 Gregory Isaacs - Be True To Me 31:54 Gregory Isaacs - The Ruler 35:19 Gregory Isaacs - GP 39:08 Gregory Isaacs - Never Be Ungrateful 43:50 Gregory Isaacs - Rock This Reggae Beat 48:00 Audio sample from movie Rockers 48:10 Gregory Isaacs - Slave Master 51:00 Gregory Isaacs - Rock On 53:52 Gregory Isaacs - Sunday Morning 57:02 Gregory Isaacs - Night Nurse 01:00:53 Gregory Isaacs - Ba Da 01:03:45 Gregory Isaacs - Dreams Come True 01:06:05 Gregory Isaacs -Babylon Too Rough Genre Reggae Comment by Queenholycristy Qhc Reggae is my medicine Jah Bless UP 2021-11-07T18:14:09Z Comment by levtoledo Sir gregory 🔥 2021-09-15T11:30:31Z Comment by cole good vibes 2021-07-29T22:38:35Z Comment by Small World Sound System Big up fella. 2021-07-16T11:05:45Z Comment by Anna Papa Beautiful mix ❤️🔥 2021-07-16T08:39:44Z Comment by River Fury sweet mix 2021-07-16T05:23:02Z Comment by Le Tigre Noir About to smoke and mow the lawn, perfect soundtrack for the afternoon🔥🔥🔥 2021-07-10T15:45:58Z Comment by music makes life better 💯 😎 2021-07-09T00:35:01Z Comment by R-unit Sound [PROMO] 🆘🌟🆘🌟 2021-07-08T21:21:12Z Comment by HIGH RISE REGGAE.👀! 👀 2021-07-08T17:34:12Z
