Horace Ferguson
Sensi Addict
Death Is Not The End's 333 sub-label re-issues a serious all-timer of an LP from the peak of reggae / dancehall's mid-to-late 1980s digital era, in the form of Horace Ferguson's ''Sensi Addict'' - recorded for Prince Jazzbo's Ujama label and originally released back in 1987.
Produced and arranged by the late great Jazzbo (and issued here under license from the foundation deejay & producer's family) the Sensi Addict LP pulls together a selection of vocals recorded between 1984 and 1987 at Michael Carroll's Creative Sounds studio in Kingston, recorded by engineer (and singer and producer in his own right) Paul Davidson. Horace's infectious falsetto can be found riding a collection of Jazzbo's digital rhythms - from the inspired Replay version on ''Jah Order'', to the updated take on the foundational Sleng Teng rhythm track on ''Tranquilizer'' - representing some of the most forward-thinking production of the period outside of Jammys and King Tubby's Firehouse stables.
The bulk of these rhythm tracks were performed by revered multi-instrumentalist Tyrone Downie (a long-time member of Bob Marley and The Wailers since the mid 70s) alongside Tony ''Asher'' Brissett - another massively undersung session musician perhaps most notable for laying down the initial Sleng Teng rhythm track for Jammys in 1984.
