Here Comes The Heartaches

Delroy Wilson, the original Cool Operator, was also known to many as Teacher. A title given to him as he unselfishly taught the up-and-coming singers, including Dennis Brown, the art and delivery of singing technique. Delroy's rich tone to his voice added a depth to any song that he chose to sing. Delroy Wilson (b.1948 Kingston, Jamaica) began his musical career at the school that was Coxsone Dodd's studio One label. After a brief stop in 1969, which saw Delroy working for producer Sonia Pottinger's Tip Top label, he was producing such hits including It Hurts and Put Yourself In My Place. The 1970s saw Delroy Wilson's arrival at Bunny Striker Lee's door and what would result in a winning formula, scoring hit after hit. It is from this great period in Delroy's career that Kingston Sounds have compiled this selection of killer tunes, cut with the drum and bass rhythm kings themselves, Sly Dunbar and Robbie Shakespeare. Such classics as Who Care, Can I Change Your Mind, Get Ready, You Must Believe Me, and the timeless title track to this collection, Here Comes The Heartaches. An album of great tracks cut with The Hitmaker from Jamaica, Bunny Lee and his team. A match made in heaven. CD version includes three bonus tracks.
