Revenge of the Underdog

Recorded
Released

Singers and Players, a loose conglomeration of reggae artists pulled together by producer Adrian Sherwood, made four albums in the early- to mid-1980s for Sherwood’s On-U Sound label. Every one of them was an outstanding document of dark and heavy roots reggae, but Revenge of the Underdog was arguably the best; featured vocalists included the ethereal Bim Sherman and the gravel-voiced deejay Prince Far I, whose exceptionally dread “Prodigal Son” remains one of the strongest tracks ever recorded at the iconic label.
