John Holt - Living Legend

John Holt - Living Legend

Classic LP 1986
Arranged and produced by John Holt
A nice contribution again by Reggaedjax, give thanks! He has done some fine rips for this blog lately; the Frankie Paul Reaching Out album, Delroy Wilson - Straight From The Heart, Michael Palmer - Pull It Up Now, U-Roy & Friends - DJ Masterpieces and Winston Reedy - Dim The Light.
The album cover of Living Legend does not mention anything apart from the track list, guess it's Sly & Robbie on the drum and bass. Also including a cover version of the Stevie Wonder evergreen I Just Call To Say... The music is pre-digital, not digital yet. Enjoy!

John Holt - I Can't Get You Off My Mind

Compilation of songs that John Holt recorded at Studio One from 1968 to 1972. Holt is best known for his popreggae later in his career, way to cheesy for me, and his dancehall period with the hit Police In Helicopter. In between he recorded a few good albums at Channel One in late seventies.
He is an exquisite vocalist. I Can't Get You Off My Mind is an excellent start to get to know some of this often misinterpreted artists output, cause the music here is still pure, before he made his attempts to reach wider audiences with poppy reggae LPs.
