Lovers-sugared 1985 roots reggae covers of a Randy Newman classic, made famous by Nina Simone, produced by top tier reggae legend Errol Dunkley
Practically impossible to find on original format, ‘Baltimore’ is given due care and attention by chert-picking Aussie label Isle of Jura. The cover of ‘Baltimore’ is nice as they come, balancing dark (left hand) keys with Judy & Lynda’s smooth high register vocal control in a swaying chassis of sax, bountiful but judicious FX and soul-stirring bassline, before ‘Heavenly Day’ dials up the sugar tax in key with the title, all swooning croon and lilting guitar set atop balmy bottom end.
