Following her hugely acclaimed, 2023 Sunday Best-released Version Girl album, on 27 September Sunday Best will release Rhoda Dakar’s outstanding tribute to her former group, The Bodysnatchers.
It has been 45 years since the world was first introduced to all-female 2Tone trailblazers The Bodysnatchers. Despite only releasing two official 7″ singles, their influence on UK culture and music continues to inspire to this day.
In 2014, founding Bodysnatchers’ member Rhoda Dakar revisited some of the group’s glorious tracks and recorded them with a band including Specials mates Horace Panter and Lynval Golding, festival favourites Intensified, plus members of Pama International and the Sidewalk Doctors.
Today sees the release of the first single from the up-coming album. Let’s Do Rocksteady @ 45 has been re-recorded exclusively for this anniversary album and features The Interrupter’s Aimee Allen (Aimee Interrupter).
