From start to finish this is a dynamic and uncompromising meeting of both forms of roots music; reggae and blues. Immaculately played and defined as never before.
'If You Want Loyalty Buy a Dog' is the culmination of a 25 year long musical partnership between On-U label owner Adrian Sherwood and guitarist Skip "Little Axe" McDonald. Skip's roots lie in the blues, first taught to him by his father while growing up in Dayton, Ohio. Adrian is considered one of the world's most versatile and prolific dub producers and a sonic visionary. This disc, the duo's seventh effort together under the Little Axe moniker, features the legendary drummer Style Scott, who plays as a member of both the Dub Syndicate and Roots Radics ensembles, drawing on classic and new On-U rhythms.
From start to finish this is a dynamic and uncompromising meeting of both forms of roots music; reggae and blues. Immaculately played and defined as never before, 'If You Want Loyalty Buy a Dog' is, in the eyes of Skip and Adrian, their finest work to date.
"Embraces the blues with authority, creativity and innovation. The distinctive Little Axe sound is a dreamy miasma, creaming up elements of funk, rock, soul and gospel."
