I met a young girl, she gave me a rainbow I met a young woman whose body was burning Heard the sound of a clown who cried in the alleyĪnd it's a hard, it's a hard, it's a hard, it's a hard Heard the song of a poet who died in the gutter I heard one person starve, I heard many people laughin' I heard ten thousand whisperin' and nobody listenin' I heard one hundred drummers whose hands were a-blazin' I heard the roar of a wave that could drown the whole world I heard the sound of a thunder, it roared out a warnin' I saw guns and sharp swords in the hands of young childrenĪnd it's a hard, it's a hard, it's a hard and it's a hardĪnd what did you hear, my darling young one? I saw ten thousand talkers whose tongues were all broken I saw a white ladder all covered with water
la dub version di Brixton non è granchè ma il resto è bello: che. though, all it makes me want to do is find Jimmy Cliffs earlier releases on Island and A&M instead.

'Sacred Fire' is available as CD, digital download and a limited edition 12”, which includes the bonus cut World Upside Down.Oh, where have you been, my blue-eyed son?Īnd where have you been my darling young one? It’s not known if Tim Armstrong handles production duties on the full-length album as well, but I certainly hope so. Jimmy Cliff singing is surprisingly low-key and peaceful, but with great sensibility and affection. The riddims and the backing are uncompromising and injected with loads of attitude. Jimmy Cliff’s versions of punk anthems Guns of Brixton and Ruby Soho excel the original versions by The Clash and Rancid respectively. 'Sacred Fire' features one original, three covers and one dub version. This is reggae heavily influenced by the sounds that came from Jamaican label Beverly’s run by late producer Leslie Kong, for whom Jimmy Cliff recorded in the beginning of his nearly 50 year long career. He was one of the driving forces behind Hellcat Records and has also collaborated with Buju Banton and members of The Specials.īut Jimmy Cliff’s 'Sacred Fire' is neither conscious dancehall nor British ska. Tim Armstrong is by no means a stranger to reggae.
His new EP 'Sacred Fire' – a pre-curser to an album due in April next year – is produced by Tim Armstrong, punk rocker and front man in Rancid. Award-winning musician/actor/singer/songwriter and producer Jimmy Cliff is back with a fresh and sparkling attitude.
