A pivotal release from one of reggae’s most iconic voices, Poorman Style showcases Barrington Levy at his cultural and lyrical peak. Recorded in 1982, during the rise of “roots & culture” DJ styles, Levy’s sharp delivery rides heavyweight rhythms that would echo across decades of reggae and dancehall.
This Canadian repress preserves the warmth of the original Clocktower mix, a hallmark of the New York-based label known for curating foundational reggae. A timeless anthem of resilience and reality, this record is essential for collectors and selectors alike.
