The singing drummer, a devout Rastafarian musician. Dadawah brought Ras Michael together with veteran studio hands -- bassist \u003cstrong\u003eLloyd Parks\u003c\/strong\u003e, drummer \u003cstrong\u003ePaul Williams\u003c\/strong\u003e, guitarist \u003cstrong\u003eWillie Lindo\u003c\/strong\u003e, and pianist\/organist \u003cstrong\u003eLloyd Charmers\u003c\/strong\u003e, who trebled as producer. The resulting album \u003cem\u003ePeace \u0026amp; Love\u003c\/em\u003e is a work of faith. Although not a concept album in the strict sense of the term, it thematically evokes the Biblical final days.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eRun Come Rally\u003c\/em\u003e calls together the world's righteous in preparation for the upcoming battle with evil. Having gathered together the brethren from \u003cem\u003eSeventy Two Nations\u003c\/em\u003e, all bow before Jah in a celebration of His greatness, then give voice to their desire to return to \u003cem\u003eZion Land\u003c\/em\u003e. The set concludes with \u003cem\u003eKnow How You Stand\u003c\/em\u003e' a call for freedom, and with it the ability to fulfil Jah's plan. The extraordinary power of the set's themes is echoed by the equally phenomenal backings, all conjuring up the most haunting of atmospheres. Intriguingly, though, there's no reggae guitar, just Lindo's sublime riffs and licks that flick into the rock realm, while constantly sliding back into blues. Charmers' piano and organ occasionally take over the reggae guitar role, but mostly his keys intertwine around Lindo's leads, accentuating melodies, scattering elegant flourishes here and there, and subtly building up the atmospheres. Charmers' production is superb, the musicians inspired, and Ras Michael's power undeniable. An astounding album that's lost none of its potency over the years.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003ePeace and Love (wadadasow)\u003c\/em\u003e is available as a numbered limited edition of 750 copies on orange coloured vinyl.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Trojan Records","offers":[{"title":"Numbered Orange Vinyl LP","offer_id":58199479058777,"sku":"SDZ-46768","price":30.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0588\/3455\/0945\/files\/LIT_20260602_1745_164850_284_v_8719262043442_002_be9749fb-5b2d-41a4-bb4a-4a41cfcb722b.png?v=1780480837","url":"https:\/\/spindizzyrecords.com\/products\/dadawah-peace-and-love-wadadadow","provider":"Spindizzy Dublin","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
