UB40 - Baggariddim (1985)

Baggariddim combines a thoroughly appealing three-song EP, highlighted by the catchy "Don't Break My Heart" and a duet with Chrissie Hynde on Sonny & Cher's "I Got You Babe," with dub mixes of cuts from Labour of Love and Geffery Morgan, which feature guest toasters on almost every song.
The dubs are among the strongest the band have ever released, emphasizing their reggae roots, and the new material is melodic and engaging, making Baggariddim a strong follow-up to two of their finest albums.

As the title suggests, this is a 'riddim' album - the same tune with different toasters & chatters. It has a very authentic deejay reggae sound, with some notable names, not least the mighty Dillinger, who does a great job. Long-time UB associate Pato Banton turns out a good chat on 'King Step', as do unknowns Gunslinger (on 'Buzz Feeling', but less so on 'Two in a One') Stone and Pablo.
