Stevie Face Hit Bound Single


This is the second 'oldies' in succession being covered by lovers rock singer, Stevie Face, who seems to be in a particular groove when it comes to doing covers of hit songs. From Alton Ellis blockbuster Breaking Up to Aaron Neville's signature hit, Tell It Like It Is — the song which cracked the door for him last year — Face has been making memorable cover versions.

He now takes a swipe at the Englebert Humperdink single made popular locally by Boris Gardener, I Want To Wake Up With You. This timeless classic will undoubtedly have an impact with its resurgence and Bootcamp Records looks poised to score again.
Singer: - Stevie Face
Song: - I Wanna Wake Up With You

About Ranking Joe :

Born Joseph Jackson in Kingston on 1st June 1959, Joe got his start on record with the founding father of Jamaican music, producer Coxsone Dodd (Studio 1), cutting "Gun Court" in 1975 as Little Joe. He then recorded for a variety of producers including Bunny Lee, Watty Burnett and former African Brother Derrick Howard. By 1976 he was deejaying on the legendary sound system of Daddy U-Roy, Stur-Gav Hi-Fi, and recording for producer Prince Tony Robinson. His first album for that producer was released in 1977 and included hits like "John Saw Them Coming" and "Queen Majesty Chapter 3". He continued to deejay with U-Roy's set,
building up a formidable reputation as a live deejay. He began recording hits for Sonia Pottinger ("Shine Eye Gal" 1978) and was the first deejay to record for Sly & Robbie's Taxi label when he versioned Gregory Isaacs' hit "Soon Forward" ("Stop Your Coming & Come" in 1978).
