Errol Scorcher - Roach In A De Corner



Ola Kingstonians, today we have here this mighty fine early dancehall deejay LP recorded by King Tubbys. Scorcher started his career in the early 70's and according to the info from many sites on the internet he died twice: Some sites say that he was shot by police in Kingston in 1982, a detailed story, but lots of other sites say that he died in 2012 at the age of 55 in hospital from a ruptured blood vessel in his head.
Familiar riddims of the time were used on this album, such as Shank I Sheck, Bobby Babylon, and the hit "Roach In De Corner" is on the Real Rock riddim, enjoy!
