He made some fantastic records mate, right from the start of the 60's to the mid 70's.  Check of Walk The Streets, Solomon, Born To Love You, Been So Long, and this, the absolute pinnacle..

There's a nice soulful version of this by King Sporty - came out on Attack in the 70s

Trial Of Love is a long standing favourite of mine.  Excellent sweet soul.

 

Derrick Harriott is just as known as a producer- check his work with David Anthony, The Kingstonians, Keith & Tex and Junior Soul

Been after a copy of "it's alright" for a while, but every original I came across seems to be pressed off centre. Can be seen in the youtube-clip posted above too. It's only the bootlegs that seem to work properly. Can anyone confirm ? Or better: anyone got a working original for sale ?

Michael - what bootlegs?  I have an Island copy - no problems with that.  Not a hard record to find to be honest.

I thought the original was on crystal. - ?
