Jamwax is thrilled to announce the reissue of the iconic 45 RPM single The Man Who Sold The World by the Wally Brothers, originally released in 1974 on the Explosion label, a subsidiary of Trojan Records. This deep roots reggae track stands out with its unique orchestral strings, delivering a soulful and distinctive interpretation of David Bowies legendary song. Some even argue that this version surpasses Bowies original in coolness and creativity. Produced by Desmond Bryan and Webster Shrowder, the Wally Brothers, better known as the renowned reggae band The Cimarons, brought their signature style to this remarkable track. Featuring Bobby Davis on vocal as confirmed by Locksley Gichie of The Cimarons, this version bridges Jamaican roots music with international influences. At the time of its release in 1974, The Man Who Sold The World was relatively unknown to the general public, making this reggae adaptation a daring and unconventional choice. Decades later, Kurt Cobains unforgettable performance of the song during Nirvanas MTV Unplugged in New York introduced it to a new audience, transforming Bowies original and its various covers, including this reggae rendition, into a cornerstone of music history.
