Doctor Alimantado – Oil Crisis (1973)

Thirty eight years on and there is nothing new under the sun. Oil price at record levels, OPEC in disarray and my X Reg Clio almost too expensive to drive …..

A wonderful Lee “Scratch” Perry produced reggae classic recorded in 1973 by the immortal Doctor Alimantado (now looking to take over a GP commissioning role under the NHS reforms ..).  Based on the crucial “Ain’t No Sunshine” rhythm as popularised by Bill Withers and then Horace Andy.
