Alan King Pin - just pure sufferation on this one.
Can’t get enough of Rick Poppa Howard’s voice.
Pure soul music.
Obvious but undeniable choice.

He has this ‘catch’ in his voice where he sounds like he’s on the verge of choking, it’s a powerful weapon.

Got to be Robert Owens, Tears seminal track still for me, Kenny Bobien close second. ‘Father’ is a killer still. When he was on it can’t beat Dennis Emanuel Brown, remember a doc watched in 90’s with him singing ‘Have you ever…’ was emotional.

Amazing how many reggae singers have such pure voices considering the amount of ganja going around. By rights they should all sound like Tom Waits.

Discovered this a few years ago… I try to emulate when on my own, its not a nice sound. Pat nails it.
The Chairman of the Board too… Sort of grew up with my parent’s playing him and watching too many Mob films etc.
