about

This is a harmonica instrumental version of this all time Summertime favorite, and an instrumental cover version of the Soulful Strut soul classic. Both are great interpretations of instrumental covers that are ranked definitely as two of the greatest Rocksteady tunes.

Taken straight from its master tape, Summertime is a masterpiece that condensed the splendor of the blinded harmonica maestro and famed vocalist, Roy Richards. Originally released in 1968 by Young Holt Unlimited, it scored a big hit. This great cover of the Soul classic, which sounds easily fitting the pattern of Sir Coxsone’s taste who was a huge fan of US hits, was played loosely and effortlessly by the then newly formed Sound Dimensions.
