Not generally a Dave Barker fan, but I've just been listening to his "Your Love's A Game" from Winston Riley and that track just smooooookes. Wow.
Wish he did more stuff like that. I really prefer when he just does his more chilled out singing rather than screeching like Dennis Alcapone.

Check his straight soul work with band Chain Reaction ion addition to the uncredited reggae/soul work with Starbound.

Hi Algoriddim,
I don't know if you already listened to his vocal skills on Perry Upsetter production, a real soul voice he had (and still has !)
For me one of the very best jamaican tracks in terms of vocal rendition :
Dave Barker & The Wailers - Don't Let The Sun Catch You Crying - Upsetter 7"
