Fire Over Babylon: Dread, Peace and Conscious Sounds at Studio One gathers the spiritual, socially charged side of Clement Dodd's legendary Kingston label across a gatefold double LP.
Released by Soul Jazz in 2021, the collection focuses on roots reggae with a message: songs about faith, struggle, injustice and peace, recorded by Studio One's deep bench of singers and harmony groups. The Gladiators and Wailing Souls each turn up more than once, and their close harmonies set the tone for a record that is meditative and militant in equal measure.
Freddie McGregor opens with the defiant I Am A Revolutionist, The Silvertones keep the flame alive on Burning In My Soul, and Horace Andy's Mr. Jolly Man shows off that unmistakable, quivering voice. There are deep cuts too, from Judah Eskender Tafari's Always Trying to The Viceroys' So Many Problems, all riding heavyweight Studio One rhythms built for the sound systems of Kingston and beyond.
This is music made for reflection and for the dance at the same time, which is the quiet magic of the best roots reggae. Count Ossie's drums surface along the way too, a reminder of how deep the conscious current runs at Studio One. Put it on loud and let the bass do the preaching.
