Description
Marcia Griffiths’ Sweet and Nice captures Jamaican reggae at its most soulful, blending supple rhythms with R&B, pop and deep soul. This Be With Records repress (BEWITH056LP) presents the remastered album on 140g double vinyl, restoring the original Jamaican running order and adding a second LP of 14 rare recordings.
“Here I Am (Come and Take Me)”, “Everything I Own” and the atmospheric “Children at Play” sit alongside tender interpretations of “Sweet, Bitter Love” and “The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face”. Griffiths makes each song her own, moving effortlessly between dancefloor warmth and intimate balladry.
The bonus record expands the picture with “Melody Life”, “Mark My Word”, “Band of Gold” and an alternate “Play Me” featuring producer Lloyd Charmers on vocals. A substantial collection for reggae selectors, soul collectors and anyone discovering one of Jamaica’s defining voices.
