12 inch version of the track released in 1978 and also on the 'Rasta Communication' album of the same year. Ominously known as "The Dark Prince of Reggae," Keith Hudson was born into a musical family in Kingston, Jamaica 18 March 1947. He originally trained as a dentist but by age 21 had sunk his earnings into his own record label, Inbidimts, and had a hit with Ken Boothe's recording of "Old Fashioned Way." Not long after this chart success, the suddenly hot Hudson was producing some of the biggest (and soon-to-be biggest) names in reggae: John Holt, Delroy Wilson, Alton Ellis, and the great toasters U-Roy and Dennis Alcapone. By the mid-'70s, Hudson began releasing more solo work and released his intense second record, Flesh of My Skin, an ominous, dark record that earned Hudson his title as reggae's "Dark Prince." In 1976, Hudson relocated to New York City and worked pretty much nonstop, producing as well as recording solo records up until 1982 until he succumbed to lung cancer in 1984.
