Struggle
Little Kirk has quite the cult following among digi heads, and deservedly so, his output as a young singer was strikingly good. His classic first LP is finally available as a limited edition repress here - Livity Records.
Philip Myers' output was limited to a handful of small-press 45's, of which this is his best. Released out of the tough neighborhood of Seaview Gardens in the Kingston 11 district of Jamaica, the tune sounds very much of its time and place. It's sparse, bass-and-keyboard heavy production and youthman singer's voice epitomize what is best about early digital productions.
