    Foundational deejay U-Roy recorded The Seven Gold at Michael Carroll's Creative Sounds Studio in Kingston with assistance from engineer (and singer & producer in his own right) Paul Davidson for Prince Jazzbo's Ujama imprint - with the LP then seeing the light of day on the label in 1987.

    It features the late, great Ewart Beckford appearing on a range of classic Jazzbo-produced late-80s digital rhythms - from the inspired Replay version on 'Holo Gow', to the updated digital take on the Heavenless rhythm on 'Jah Jah Call You' and his take on Horace Ferguson's Sensi Addict in 'Musikal Addick'. The bulk of these rhythm tracks were performed by revered multi-instrumentalist Tyrone Downie (a long-time member of Bob Marley & The Wailers since the mid 70s) alongside Tony "Asher" Brissett - another massively undersung session musician perhaps most notable for laying down the initial Sleng Teng rhythm track for Jammys in 1984.
