King Stitt The Gladiators - Lee Van Cliff Sweet Soul Music
Review by Сергей Брановицкий
Lee Van Cliff's Sweet Soul Music is a classic reggae album that is sure to delight fans of the genre. The album features the smooth vocals of King Stitt and the powerful harmonies of The Gladiators, making for a truly dynamic listening experience.
The album opens with the title track, a soulful ode to the power of music that sets the tone for the rest of the record. From there, the songs range from upbeat and danceable to introspective and emotional.
One standout track is "Ghetto Life," which features a haunting melody and poignant lyrics about the struggles of life in the inner city. Another highlight is "Freedom," a powerful anthem that encourages listeners to stand up for their rights and fight for justice.

About King Stitt The Gladiators
King Stitt was the oldest living Jamaican deejay until January 31, 2012. Sparkes was given the nickname Stitt as a boy and decided to use it as his stage name, becoming King Stitt when he was crowned king of the deejays in 1963. He began deejaying on Coxsone Dodd's Sir Coxsone's Downbeat Sound System in 1956 or 1957, influenced by American DJs heard on radio broadcasts from Miami and New Orleans. The original Jamaican deejay, Count Machuki noticed him for his dancing and offered him to try his hand on the mic. Born with a facial malformation, King Stitt took advantage of it and called himself The Ugly One, in reference to the Sergio Leone western movie The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly.
His first record releases came from producer Clancy Eccles with classic deejay tracks like "Fire Corner
