Horace Ferguson - Senci Addick 7'' [1984 Ujama Original Pressing]

From what I've heard, Ferguson's Sensi Addict LP has been credited as the first fully digital album to come out of Jamaica. Here we have a rare instrumental (non digi) cut of the title track that is different from the album version. Personally I like the digikal one better, but this is still an interesting bit of history to listen to. Anyone have more info? Much appreciated-

  1. 'sensi addict' isn't a 100% digital LP...
    but 'leave babylon' LP on the ujama label is...
    i think ppl are mistaken about 'sensi addict' being first as this version came out in 1984 and is not digital but to a person just scouring discographies they wouldn't have found out that there are two different versions of the song.
    I heard 'herbsman hustling' by sugar minott came out before this and sleng teng as one of the first digital riddims...

  2. ^ word man. The single Sensi Addict wasn't the first digital 7'' put out, but from what I had heard the LP was one of the first digi albums to drop. you're right that there are a couple non-digital tracks on that LP tho. Thanks for the info!!
