About this item

Susan Cadogan is a Reggae & Rocksteady singer from Kingston, Jamaica. With a delicate voice that shimmers between childlike innocence and smouldering sexuality, her vocals were the perfect expression of lover's rock. One of her first recordings for Perry, a cover of Millie Jackson's soul hit, "Hurt So Good" (featuring bassist Boris Gardiner), was released in the UK by Dennis Harris' DIP International label. It topped the UK reggae chart and went on to reach No. 4 in the UK Singles Chart which resulted in Cadogan flying to London to promote the single, including many television appearances on the BBC's Top of the Pops. "Hurt So Good" was subsequently certified silver in the UK and gold in South Africa after a few weeks and became one of the top selling singles of 1975 in the UK. This is the album she recorded for Trojan Records, and it was produced by the legendary Lee Perry.
