Re: Horsemouth Wallace Or Sly Dunbar?

I know he's on countless sessions, but he's never listed as the only drummer on an album. There's usually 3 or 4 drummers listed so how do I know which is Mikey Boo?
But thanks I'll check out that video.

One record I do know Mikey Boo is the drummer all the way through is "Life Of Contradiction" by Joe Higgs! This only shows a glimpse of Mikey Boo's drumming! The backing band was Now Generation! Mikey Boo held the drum chair with them for a long time!

Once a famous Reggae musician and producer said: ' I can penetrate every drummer's style'

I couldn't understand it....until later. Each one has a different approach or vibe, same as bass players (or any other musicians) that plays a part.

what about style scott ? He is a verry strickt drummer i think sly is a fantastic drummer /and santa too bit style scott is verry strict rhythm i like houw he drums in the early jah thomas sessions

Style Scott is awesome! I like all of his work with Roots Radics! But I'm not sure, did he drum on Eek-A-Mouse Wa-Do-Dem album? If he is not the drummer, than who is, does anyone know? For me this album has some of the best riddims ever! I love how Flabba Holt and the drummer complement each other!

Wa do dem is a album of early radics riddims from junjo and at the time junjo did hire santa davis for it and he was later replaced by style scott in 1980/1981 you reconise santa about his magnificent heavy fill drumming style scott is easy but strict and sly is magnificent with other moves every drummer has his vibe.

sombedoy know whoe the drummer was in the sound dimension ? studio 1 (larry marshall - mean girl)

Sound Dimension was usually Fil Callander!

Check out Pablo Moses "In the future" and "Pave the way". Mikey is shining through these albums like few others can.

I'm glad to know that, thanks for pointing it out!
