Tune ID.

Post by bristolite »

dont know how to upload mp3s but theres a song thats been buggin me for months now. I'd put it maybe mid-early 70s, sound like a young wayne wade or barry brown. that sort of voice.
Some lyrics:"Rome is for the romans zion is for the zion leaders.." pretty vague haha

Sounds to me like it could be a song entitled "Jah Come Now" and I can't remember the singers name for love nor money. However I know its a female artist and backed by the Wailers band and yes you're spot on when u say mid-70's.
If you can hear that trademark hi-hats of Carlton Barrett drumming, then I'm 99% sure that I've got the right song.
One of my fave female songs too!! Shame I cnat remember her name because I don't believe she had many releases..

Hope this helps, One Love......

I only know her through Familyman's LP "Cobra Style", which is excellent. Hehe young Wayne Wade/Barry Brown ;-)

it has the same melodics as the senya and the artist has a similar voice to barry brown/ wayne wade

as a footnote: the senya came also on fam's lable with a different riddim, same lyrics... '80s style
