Former Customs clerk Roy Reid thrilled the Jamaican music scene as a toaster, his effortless rhymes establishing a reputation on the Supreme Ruler of Sound in his native Spanish Town and later on various Kingston sets, including King Tubby’s. Following a successful phase in London, he returned to Jamaica to record for various producers, having a special connection with chief hit-maker, Bunny Lee; Dread Baldhead is a rare set from 1976 with Roy toasting at Tubby’s studio over some of Bunny’s hardest Aggrovators rhythms as laid by Tommy McCook and team, originally for Johnny Clarke and Derrick Morgan. Essential listening!
