Dennis Alcapone - Yeah Yeah Yeah Mash Up The Dance LP
SKU: KSLP036 OverviewDescription:
Dennis Alcapone initially inspired by DJ U Roy, was soon to
challenge his crown in the early part of the 70s releasing over 100
hit tunes. He could weave his vocal magic over any tune / rhythm
that came his way and take it to another place. Dennis Alcapone (b.
Dennis Smith, 6 August 1947, Clarendon, Jamaica) began Dj-ing for
the El Paso Hi–Fi Sound System around 1969.
His first releases resulted from working with producer Keith
Hudson, a succession of hits followed. Dennis moved camp to work
with producer Duke Reid reworking some fresh ideas over classic
Treasure Isle rhythms. Dennis moved on to work with all the top
producers through this period between 1970-1973 producers Coxonne
Dodd, Lee Perry, Sir JJ, Winston Riley, Joe Gibbs, Prince Buster
all provided an outlet for his musical endeavours. Another great
relationship was his work for producer Bunny Lee.
These songs were recorded in Jamaican studios like Channel One,
Harry J's and Randy's Studio 17. Backing musicians include Robbie
Shakespeare, Sly Dunbar, Earl 'Chinna' Smith and Tommy McCook
