'A compilation of significant historical value.' Reviewed by Charles H.E. Campbell for Jamaica Observer, Sunday, May 16, 2004 First, we got Duke Reid's Treasure Chest in 1992 filled with Treasure Isle's hottest Rock Steady hits. In 1993 came Mango Records' release of Tougher Than Tough - the Story of Jamaican Music, covering hits from the Ska to Ragga eras, and Original Jamaican Classics was released in 1994 by Studio One. Now in 2004 we finally have VP Records' Reggae Anthology - The Channel One Story, a two-disc set, 30 years after the roots sound of the Hoo Kim Brothers' Maxfield Avenue-based studio began their 10-year domination of the Reggae and Dancehall markets in 1974. This occurred in two distinct periods - 1975-1977 and 1979-1984. As Dave Hendley says in the liner notes, 'it was Sly's imaginative experimentation with creating new beats [and completely reworking the Reggae rhythm] that finally resulted in the militant 'Rockers style' that made Channel One famous.'
Right Time, by the Mighty Diamonds was a big 1975 hit and introduced us to this innovative double drumming style and along with I Need A Roof have become perennially popular. The Channel One house band, The Revolutionaries, continued to record new versions of Studio One's Rock Steady and Reggae rhythms and other hits flowed. In the same year Welding by DJ I-Roy, MPLA by the Revolutionaries, and Junior Byles' Fade Away became instant chart-toppers. In 1976 with Sly and Robbie using College Rock, an original Studio One rhythm, Leroy Smart's Ballistic Affair was a big Jamaican and UK hit. Without Love soon followed. Anyone familiar with Dancehall protocol knows the symbolism and implications when a selector draws for Burial by the Revolutionaries at that critical juncture in the session. Queen Majesty by the Jays and Rankin Trevor, an update of the Techniques' 1967 Studio One hit which became massive on radio and eventually in the Dancehall, is regarded as a classic.
In 1979 as the Dancehall era dawned, an upgraded 16-track Channel One Studio was once again 'in the midst of a musical revolution'. Sugar Minott and Little John - the first successful exponents of modern Dancehall music, that is, in the dance singing 'live' over rhythm tracks - enhance this double CD with their hits of that year, Show Me That You Love Me Girl and Babylon, both by Sugar Minott, and Smoke Ganja Hard by Little John. The sound of the new Channel One house band, The Roots Radics, was stark and haunting with bare but tighter, more syncopated rhythms, 'echo-laden and cleanly recorded, emphasising the separation between the instruments'. Frankie Paul's 1983 hit Worries In The Dance amplifies this minimalist style. In this genre Road Block by Sammy Dread and Far East by Barry Brown, as well as the aforementioned Fade Away, also speak eloquently and melodically about some scourges, police harassment and brutality, urban violence, political tribalism, class and religious (Rastafari) prejudice, which still very much plague our society, and hence remain quite potent in their message. Appropriately, four lovers rock tracks close out the first disc. Dances Are Chances by Barrington Levy and Rankin Trevor's version of Marcia Griffith's classic Truly were very popular when they were first released.
