Fyza - Ain't No Sunshine 1993

Stonegroove Records STONED 2

  • Reggae Version
  • Soul Version
This classic Bill Withers composition has been covered by a plethora of quality musicians and should I wish to hear a reggae take then Jimmy Lindsay cut a splendid job on Gem Records back in the late 70's. No sir, this Reggae Version has been mistakenly put on the A side. It is a fair additional mix but it is no lead track. Everybody knows that Side AA is the B side and in this case, Side B is where it's at.


The Soul Version is a dreamy affair, Fyza Saleh weaves her sexy laidback vocals beautifully on this blissful cover. Superb production from Steve Williams for Theory, who knows how to let a voice breathe. The badass bumpy bass and ethereal jingly percussion are perfect for the job. This isn't as unique as Poetical Love (which I do not have on single, sorry guys) but it is a well written and well executed song. You won't be disappointed.
