The Poor Man's Friend, a label backing band featuring guitar, bass & drums, organ, saxophone, and percussion, coupled with the detailed and thoughtful songwriting and melancholy vocals of Dennis Walks, create a bluesy, doo-wop roots reggae song that strongly evokes the raw spirit and identity of early roots reggae music in Jamaica at the dawn of the music era. The instrumental dub on the B-side is also a superb and deep experience. (Original Japanese text by COMPUMA)
