One Bright Day (1989, Virgin) Recorded at Compass Point Studios in the Bahamas, this recording also features Dallol, the Chicago-based Ethiopian band that toured with the Melody Makers throughout 1987 and early 1988. They were joined for the recording by reggae guitar great Earl "Chinna" Smith. The album was again produced by Frantz and Weymouth, this time in conjunction with Ziggy and engineer Glen Rosenstein. The album's leadoff track "Black My Story (Not History)" is one of Ziggy's finest compositions to date. Background vocals on this track are sung in Amharic by Dallol. "Urb-an Music" is a sly comment on both radio formatting and the felicitous combination of music and herb. Click on any song title to go to its description page.
