Junior Delgado & Hugh Mundell - Away With Your Fussing / Augustus Pablo - King David Melody

An extended play 12" record featuring not one A - list reggae artist, but three A - list reggae artists: Junior Delgado, Hugh Mundell and Augustus Pablo. Just one of those reggae artists featured would be enough to invest in an extended 12" record. All three reggae artists on both sides of this 12" is a blessing. I especially like the wailing backing vocals throughout the Junior Delgado cut. Marvellous stuff. This 12" record is great, well worth investing fifteen minutes of your time.

In a crowded field, Junior Delgado stands out amongst Jamaica's consummate roots performers, one whose distinctively expressive, and slightly husky, vocals have seen his popularity remain undiminished, even after styles changed and his original forte was pushed away by dancehall. Born August 25, 1958, in Kingston, Jamaica, Delgado began singing in his teens as Junior Hibbert, with the vocal group Time Unlimited. In 1973, the quartet came under the wing of the seminal producer Lee Perry, who both groomed the group and recorded them. Unfortunately, little of this material was released, but eventually Time Unlimited did score a hit with 'Reaction.' A higher profile brought more opportunities, and the group recorded singles for producers Rupie Edwards and Tommy Cowan, although none of these enjoyed the success of 'Reaction.' The group moved on to work with Bunny Lee, but these sessions went nowhere, and in frustration Hibbert quit the quartet in 1975 to pursue a solo career, changing his moniker to Junior Delgado at the same time. Delgado was his long-time nickname, taken from the Spanish word for skinny. Initially, Delgado remained in the shadows. Sessions with producer Niney Holness proved equally futile, as did a momentary name change to Jooks. Success only came after the singer moved to Dennis Brown's DEB label and set to work with producer Earl "Chinna" Smith. Their first collaboration, 'Tition,' bore fruit and set the stage for a string of further hits, including 'Famine' and 'Devil's Throne,' which culminated in Delgado's 1978 debut album, 'Taste of the Young Heart'. The following year, the singer started his own label, Incredible Jux, on which he released his follow-up full-length, 'Effort'. At the same time, Delgado continued recording singles with other noted producers, including Prince Jammy and Joe Gibbs, and with Augustus Pablo, for whom he cut the crucial 'Blackman's Heart Cries Out' and 'Away With You Fussing and Fighting' singles. The artist spent the early '80s splitting his time between recording and touring Britain, where he proved as popular as in Jamaica. Essay below is a snippet from Far Out magazine. At the age of 16, Mundell released his debut LP, 'Africa Must Be Free' By 1983. Released by Message Records in Jamaica and Greensleeves in the UK, the album quickly established Mundell among the most promising young artists of the reggae genre. This reputation was boosted by the sheer volume of iconic reggae figures that had a hand in creating the album, including Lee “Scratch” Perry, who took on production duties for ‘Let’s All Unite’ and ‘Why Do Black Man Fuss & Fight’. The next few years saw Mundell build his career, touring all over the globe as well as establishing a successful sound system in Jamaica under the name Jah Levi. However, his success would be tragically short-lived. In October of 1983, Mundell found his house had been ransacked and promptly turned the perpetrator to the police. Days later, on the 14th of October, the man’s brother approached Mundell’s car, demanding the release of the burglar. After an argument, Mundell was shot to death in his car, sitting beside his wife, with dancehall deejay Junior Reid in the backseat. Two years after the murder of Mundell, 25-year-old labourer Ricardo Codrington was sentenced to ten years imprisonment for manslaughter. Although the murder may have provided an untimely end to the promising career of the reggae star, it certainly did not damage his legacy. His murder left some unanswered questions about how his discography might have progressed, but it did nothing to damage the quality of the record he had already released. To this day, the recordings he had made as a teenager remain some of the defining reggae tracks of the late 1970s.
