about

Derrick Harriott's original cut of the sound system foundation rhythm 'Solomon'. Derrick sings comically about Solomon, who was given wisdom among of all mankind from God in the Old Testament: "Solomon was the wisest man but he didn't know the secrets of a woman". The hit rhythm has been versioned many times over the last four decades. On the B side, there is a nice and cool horn instrumental entitled 'The Emperor' by Bobby Ellis, its title might imply Derrick Harriott productions' good taste in music at that time.
