Description
Celebrated session guitarist, Willie Lindo, steps from behind the scenes and into the spotlight to deliver some top class original compositions and sublime cover versions.
A sumptuous piece of gourmet music. Timeless dub, executed to perfection. The B-Side sees Lindo cover Al Green and Bobby Womack, converting their slow jams into stoney instrumental masterpieces, a sort of precursor to the hiphop way of sampling and reinterpreting our collective heritage.
Far &; Distant was recorded at 220 Marcus Garvey Drive, eight years prior to Rita Marley relocating Tuff Gong International to that address. A relic from an era where being “in the studio” actually meant something.
Far and Distant is available as a limited numbered edition of 750 copies on orange coloured vinyl.The small print:• Due to rights restrictions, this item is not available in the US.
