About This Item
- Details
- Genre: Reggae
- Description: There's something ineffably profound about the way Delroy Wilson delivers a lyric. Call it phrasing, call it feel-Wilson simply knew how to occupy a song. And on My Special Lady, one of his understated yet deeply resonant late-period recordings, we encounter an artist not resting on laurels, but distilling decades of craft into 11 carefully curated tracks. Delroy came of age in Jamaica's golden age of ska, a child prodigy with an uncanny command of melody and emotion. But what's so moving here is the mature Wilson-the master storyteller with a voice burnished by life. Recorded at Striker Lee Studio with producer Bunny Lee and engineer Anthony Selassie, My Special Lady feels both personal and universal, a sonic portrait of a man still curious. The album opens with the title cut, a lover's hymn rendered with warmth and a catchy refrain. It would be classic rock steady if not for the progressive electronic production. On InchYou've Got Me Going CrazyInch and InchWin Your LovingInch, the rhythmic elasticity of his delivery recalls phrasing you'd hear from a seasoned jazz vocalist-each note intentional. InchEase UpInch, probably the biggest hit from the record, returns here to drive the tempo and initiate the dance! And then there are the reinterpretations. Delroy's take on InchSpanish HarlemInch is striking in it's restraint, trading grandeur for intimacy. InchJohnnie Too BadInch, so often rendered with bravado, becomes here a kind of cautionary tale-softened, but no less powerful. What you're hearing is the summation of a life in song. 'My Special Lady' isn't flashy. It doesn't chase trends. It reflects the journey of a man who started singing as a boy and never lost sight of the emotional truth at the heart of music. Album Tracks 1. My Special Lady 2. You've Got Me Going Crazy 3. Ease Up 4. My Only Lover 5. Thank You Lord 6. River of Babylon 7. Freedom

Recording sessions took place between December 1978 and June 1979 at Allen Zentz Recording, Westlake Recording Studios, and Cherokee Studios in Los Angeles, California. Jackson collaborated with a number of other writers and performers such as Paul McCartney, Stevie Wonder and Rod Temperton. Five singles were released from the album. It was his first solo under Epic Records, the tag he would record on until his death roughly 30 years later. Album Tracks 1. Don't Stop 'Til You Get Enough 2. Rock with You 3.
