Johnny Ruiz & The Escapers "More Reason Than One" 45

Johnny Ruiz & The Escapers "More Reason Than One" 45

From our friends at Parkside Records.

Fans of the Escapers know the love of Rock Steady and Reggae Music. This time they pay homage to a Johnny Taylor-sung Stax classic and transform it into a Lover’s Rock thriller. A bass-heavy Roots rhythm combined with Colton’s haunting lead guitar creates a perfect platform. Johnny Ruiz to express his love. Hey baby “Ain’t That Lovin You”? Definitely, and for “More Reasons Than One”

More of a double A-Side release, the B-side has The Escapers calling on The Heavyweight Dub Champion himself...the mighty Scientist to reinterpret their biggest single “Stay”! Overton “Scientist” Brown gives this tune a classic style “version” with all the echo and distortion any reggae fan would want.
A real privilege to work with one of the true legends of dub music!
