In a comment to the last post (Horace Andy/Wackie's), kostas.p thanked me for the Douglas Levy produced version of "Archibella" (or "Artibella" depending on the artist release). He mentioned that there are many versions & covers.
I had previously posted a couple of those (Susan Cadogan bonus tracks) but decided this would be a fine time to slap up a set of "Artibella" riddims. I started with the original Ken Boothe/Phil Pratt Artibella & (Version of), kinda went chronologically from there up through Snoop Lion & Tenor Youthman recent takes on the sound & finished with another Horace Andy outing using the same riddim.
This one goes out to kostas.p (& all).
