Description
Otis Gayle’s “I’ll Be Around” brings warm, organ-driven soul reggae to this remastered Studio One 7-inch, backed with Sound Dimension’s companion version.
Written by Thom Bell and Phil Hurtt, “I’ll Be Around” was first recorded and released by The Spinners in 1972. Gayle’s own single followed that same year, recasting the song in a Jamaican setting while retaining its soulful heart.
This pairing makes a natural meeting point for soul collectors and reggae selectors: a familiar composition heard through a different rhythmic lens, with the flip offering another perspective on the tune.
Presented here as a 2026 US stereo reissue at 45 RPM, Studio One CLD-SO-45-25012 is a compelling addition for listeners drawn to organ-led reggae and Jamaican interpretations of American soul. Two sides to explore, one enduring song.
