About this item
Celebrated session guitarist Willie Lindo steps from behind the scenes and into the spotlight to deliver some top class original compositions and sublime cover versions. A sumptuous piece of gourmet music: Timeless dub, executed to perfection. The B-Side sees Lindo cover Al Green and Bobby Womack, converting their slow jams into stoney instrumental masterpieces, a sort of precursor to the hip-hop way of sampling and reinterpreting our collective heritage. Far & Distant was recorded at 220 Marcus Garvey Drive, eight years prior to Rita Marley relocating Tuff Gong International to that address. A relic from an era where being “in the studio” actually meant something.
