True, True, True - Ken Parker, U-Roy, Papa Ritchie




Treasure Isle time people! This is a showcase of Ken Parker's "True True True", first up is Daddy U-Roy riding Ken's vocal, this cut is from the Version Galore Vol.2 l.p. on Trojan(TBL175) and I'm sure its on one of the MANY Treasure Isle C.D. complilations out there. Next is Papa Ritchie with "Annie Palmer" - not sure if this is in reference to the Palmer family of PAMA & Jetstar fame or not, I have a PAMA 7" from 1970 somewhere titled "Annie Pama", can't remember who the artist is on that one, but I don't know who Annie Palmer or Pama is in reference to. The last version is the original vocal cut "True,True,True" by the great foundation singer Ken Parker. I know this is on 7" but the one you are hearing is from his tour de force l.p. on Trojan(TRLS80) titled Jimmy Brown.

SIDENOTE: For an extensive interview with Ken Parker I strongly recommend you goto
