November 2007 - Together with names
like Barrington Levy, Frankie Paul was one
of the leading Rub a Dub or early Dancehall
singers during the 1980's.
In the time of this performance, Rub a Dub had
turned to become Ragga or Dancehall. In the decade
before, the Soul Syndicate had established their
name as one of the leading Jamaican Studio and
Session bands of the time, too.
Japansplash 1986 was the name and location of
the performance recorded in this video.
Dressed in a suit and tie, Frankie Paul
performs together with this tight band and he does
it in a magnificent way. His voice is obviously
and impressively indistinguishable from that of
his -many- recordings.
