Release date:
The title track written by Harris Seaton became an anthem of intent. It became a huge hit and an early Reggae Classic. Freedom Street is an important artefact and classic Beverley’s album. As well as other Seaton compositions inspired version of satisfaction, Mungo Jerry’s smash hit of the moment In the Summertime and The Royalettes girl group hit It’s gonna take a miracle are three cover versions. Drums of Freedom and Love and Unity point the way to what would typify reggae in the coming generation. The two bonus tracks takes us back to Ken’s Soul singer days but with an almost psychedelic twist to it.
