Day 202 of 365 Day Jamaican Music Challenge - U-Roy - Rightful Reggae

Let's wrap up this week with a tune from the Godfather, the great Daddy U-Roy!  This one is called "Rightful Reggae" and it comes from his album Right Time Rockers recorded at Channel One in 1976 but never released to the general public until it was put out as a CD in 1998 on the Sound System label.  The story was that the tunes on the album were recorded as "specials" for exclusive use on Jamaican sound systems and weren't ever intended to be pressed and sold but I'm glad they were; U-Roy was in top-form!  Happy Saturday folks!
