Radiation Roots present a reissue of
Trinity
's
Dreadlock Satisfaction
, originally released in 1979. The reggae artist known as Trinity is one of the music's best-known rappers, known in Jamaica as "toasters" or "deejays" for their key work at the microphone on sound systems. Born
Wade Brammer
in1954 and raised in the tough streets of the Two Mile ghetto in western Kingston, an early preoccupation with the toasting styles of
U Roy
and
Big Youth
kept him away from crime, leading to a debut single as
Prince Charming
and more solid early work released under the name
Prince Glen
. Bonding closely with fellow deejay
Dillinger
brought another name change to Trinity at Channel One studio, which enabled his debut album,
Shanty Town Determination
(1977), produced by
Yabby You
, and subsequent breakthrough material for Channel One and
Joe Gibbs
, the latter releasing "Three Piece Suit," the blueprint for
Althea and Donna
's "Uptown Top Ranking", which would catapult Trinity to international stardom.
Dreadlocks Satisfaction
was produced by
Bunny Lee
for his Jackpot label in 1979, placing Trinity's witty raps over some of Bunny's most unusual rhythms, including alternate, rockers-styled
Johnny Clarke
takes of
The Isley Brothers
' "This Old Heart Of Mine" and
The Tam
s' "Riding For A Fall," plus
Cornell Campbell
's takes of
The Sensations
' "Every Day Is A Holiday" and
The Heptones
' "Why Did You Leave"; Trinity also salutes Dillinger on a recut of
John Holt
's "Linger A While". Includes liner notes by
David Katz
.
