The
Magnifcent
7'
features
the
work
of
some
of
the
heaviest
deejays
of
the
period,
inspired
by
the
tenets
of
Rastafarianism,
extolling
the
virtues
of
living
upright
in
those
dread
times
Opening
with
Jah
Walton
who
would
go
on
to
greater
success
as
Joseph
Cotton
in
the
nineties,
followed
by
Big
Youth
who
had
made
some
of
his
earliest
records
with
Phil
Pratt.
I
Roy,
Jamaica's
most
literate
and
articulate
deejay,
steps
forward
with
two
big
hits,
'Ital
Dish'
and
'Musical
Air
Raid'
before
two
tracks
from
King
Sighta,
a
young
deejay
who
apparently
lost
an
eye
in
a
factory
accident,
and
who
released
the
eponymous
'King
Sighter
The
One
Eyed
Giant'
album
on
Terminal
that
year.
Very
little
is
known
about
Little
Wicked,
but
Big
Joe
recorded
extensively
during
the
seventies
for
Studio
One,
Harry
Mudie's
Moodisc
Records
and
many
other
top
producers
although
this
is
his
sole
recording,
released
on
Chanan
Jah
in
London,
for
Phil
Pratt.
The
set
concludes
with
Jah
Stitch,
deejay
for
Tippertone
and
Black
Harmony
sound
systems,
with
another
big
hit,
'Evilest
Thing'.
