Campbell, Cornell
My Destination
The 1970s saw Mr Campbell move on to work with producer Bunny Striker Lee, for whom he cut most of his big tunes. He and fellow singer Johnny Clarke, would become Bunnys 70s equivalent to his 1960s stable of singers like Slim Smith, Pat Kelly and Ernest Wilson. They would provide the voice to his many hits of the day. Bunny not being called Striker for nothing. Cornell also had a series of hits around his theme as the Gorgon. The mighty figure unbeatable at the dances in the Greenwich Town district of Kingston. The Gorgon, The Conquering Gorgon. Natty Dread in a Greenwich Farm. These were all firm favourites at the dances in Jamaica. He also worked with other notable producers around this time. Winston Niney Holness "I Heart is Clean, Tappa Zukie Follow Instruction and culminating in a massive hit Boxing in 1979 for producer Joe Gibbs. But it was his time with Bunny Lee that set the levels for his record output. This unreleased album is from this period in time, when Cornell Campbell never sounded sweeter......
