The album Woman Capture Man by The Ethiopians oddly does not include the title track, but here is another fact, Leonard Dillon the lead singer actually helped physically build Lee ''Scratch'' Perry's Black Ark Studios, as he was a stonemason by trade. This is a rocksteady connoisseurs dream, as The Ethiopians tracks to listen to here are ''(She's) My Girl'' which has this driving beat and a carnage of organ shards. The album is collected alongside Reggae Power on the Doctor Bird release in a double album. If one was interested in listening to any rock steady I would recommend listening to The Ethiopians. They are more edgy than the usual Derrick Harriott, and The Kingstonians. The Ethiopians have an edgy punk rock approach to their music, which was lacking in the rocksteady era.
