One Time Music and Zojak World Wide are glad to be part of the Bar­ring­ton Levy expe­ri­ence with the dig­i­tal release of Broader Than Broad­way: The Best of Bar­ring­ton Levy. On this best of col­lec­tion, pio­neer­ing and genre cross­ing dance­hall vocal­ist Bar­ring­ton Levy includes his biggest hits recorded for the biggest pro­duc­ers of the era (The Mighty Two, George Phang, Junjo Lawes, Black Scor­pio, etc). Broader Than Broad­way: The Best of Bar­ring­ton Levy is now avail­able on Itunes and etail­ers worldwide.

From the open­ing “Here I Come (Broader Than Broad­way)”, which is included on Saints Row 2 and Grand Theft Auto 3: San Andreas and fea­tures his unpar­al­leled vocal stylings, the album show­cases exactly why Bar­ring­ton Levy has been called the God­fa­ther of dance­hall reg­gae. The herbal­ist anthem, “Under Mi Sensi” (also the biggest hit on the African Beat/Jah Works rid­dim), fol­lowed by the wicked grooves of the Mighty Two-produced “Teach The Youth” as well as “Prison Oval Rock”, “Shine Eye Gal” and “Bounty Hunter” recorded for Henry ‘Junjo’ Lawes, are all clas­sic exam­ples of Levy and cru­cial rea­sons for dance­hall reggae’s inter­na­tional appeal. Bar­ring­ton demon­strates his ver­sa­til­ity on the lover’s pro­duc­tion of “The Vibes Is So Nice” before launch­ing into the straight-talking and melodic “Too Expe­ri­enced” and the bass dri­ven “Minibus”. “Money Move”, one of George Phang’s early 80s hits with the help of Sly Dun­bar & Rob­bie Shake­speare and “She’s Mine”, recorded in the late 80s for Black Scor­pio not to men­tion the 1990s remix of “Here I Come”, show just how ‘broad’ this album really is. Indeed, Broader Than Broad­way: The Best of Bar­ring­ton Levy is a col­lec­tion of not just Bar­ring­ton Levy’s best but also the best clas­sic dance­hall has to offer, then and now.
