Rather then have performers voice new lyrics over modern reworkings of Studio One rhythms, Steely & Clevie bought in the original artists to again sing the original song. The result is exemplary, mainly because of the entheusiasm that the process obviously involved. Dawn Penn's "You don't love me" was the crossover hit, but everyone - including Alton Ellis, Leroy Sibbles and the Cables - deserved similar succes.
