Review: Studio 16 continues its vital reissue work with this roots gem from Tony Brevett & The Israelites. Originally released in the golden age of roots reggae, 'Star Light' is a luminous lovers' rock anthem guided by Brevett's warm, yearning vocals and deeply spiritual intent. The flip features a classic dubbed-out version which lets the rhythm breathe in all its analogue glory. With an endlessly engaging groove and heartfelt delivery, this 7" captures a glowing slice of reggae history that still shines brightly. Also, the louder the better with this one.
Nothing Can Come Between Us (Disco Boogie 45 version) (5:09)
Review: Who doesn't love a bit of sophisticated soul? We certainly do and it's always good to hear some reworks of the soul great's finest cuts for the dancefloor. And that's what we have here on a new 7" that opens with a disco version of 'Nothing Can Come Between Us' and doesn't go hard, instead building in some gentle drums and lo-fi melodies, swooning vocals and a mystical late night sense of romance. On the flip, we get a lovers rock version of 'Cherish The Day' which adds plenty of lovely guitar lines to bring that island vibe while the shuffling drums lock you in gently.
