キャブ・キャロウェイ「MINNIE THE MOOCHER」異端カヴァー！
元STEEL PULSEのMYKAELL RILEYらも在籍、同時期にSOUL II SOULやTHE CHIMESのUK SOUL勢の作品にも参加していたヴァイオリン、ヴィオラ、チェロなどの弦楽オーケストラを駆使してのレゲエを繰り広げたTHE REGGAE PHILHARMONIC ORCHESTRAの1988年。CAB CALLOWAY「MINNIE THE MOOCHER」カヴァーにはじまり、映画『CASABRANCA』で使われる「LOVE AND HATE」や「AS TIME GOES BY」のカヴァー、「SHARPEVILLE」など、甘くも切なく胸を締め付けるような、ロマンティックな響きが素晴らしいです。
