After a brief period of creativity in the early '80s, the collective was stagnant until 1998's "Revenge of the Underdog", which featured vocals from Bim Sherman and Prince Far I. "Staggering Heights" followed in the spring of 2000.
"War Of Words" is the classic debut album by Singers & Players, a loose collective featuring top Jamaican deejays Prince Far I and Jah Woosh, plus members of the Arabs and Roots Radics. The mic is dominated on this record by the sweet vocals of cover star Bim Sherman.
Whilst very much based on a dub reggae blueprint, the record also features Keith Levene from Public Image Limited on guitar and Ari Up from The Slits on backing vocals. Kingston sound system culture as viewed through the prism of the London post-punk squat scene, and championed by the quintessential downtown NYC no wave record label.

Excellent, was still missing this one from the Singers & Players-catalogue. Thanks, great choice!
Thanks Zero. Maybe you find the time to look into some older requests. Just one example is Cochise - Wir werden leben.
Hi Cri,
which other request do you have. I will reup "Wir werden leben" this evening. Best wishes!
Thanks to you both for your feedback!
This album is not downloading
Refreshed...
A fantastic album--my favorite by Singers & Players. On-U Sound records opened up the soundscape of my brain in the late 80s!
Same to me back in the late 80s. Greetings!
