Dancing Mood by Delroy Wilson

Delroy Wilson was snapped up by Studio One head Coxsone Dodd in 1961. Although only 13, the singer was a prodigy, Jamaica's first (but far from last) child star. Wilson spent almost the entire decade at Dodd's label, recording regularly and notching up numerous hits before finally departing in 1968. Considering this wealth of high-caliber material, Dodd could easily have flooded the international market with compilations

Delroy Wilson was one of Jamaica's most soulful vocalists, and over a 40-year career the singer unleashed a flood of hits and a multitude of masterpieces. Born in the Kingston neighborhood of Trenchtown, Wilson's phenomenal talent would be his ticket out of the ghetto, and his discovery by producer Coxsone Dodd in 1962 would change the path of Jamaican music.
