In the early 60s The Pioneers were formed by the brothers Sydney and Derrick Crooks and Winston Hewitt. When Winston left for Canada he was replaced by Glen Adams. They enjoyed little success with their recordings, but when they teamed up with producer Joe Gibbs they scored several hits. The group parted ways with Gibbs after an argument and moved on to work with Leslie Kong, the first recording for Kong being “Samfie Man”, a song about a confidence trickster, which topped the Jamaican singles chart. The trio consisted of the Crooks brothers and George Dekker (half brother of Desmond Dekker). With Kong the group cut more successful singles such as “Easy Come Easy Go” (here presented in two versions), and “Mother Ritie”, and he released two albums. The tunes recorded between 1968 and 1970 were always big favorites of the skinhead teen cult in the UK. Not much later the members pursued solo careers, though The Pioneers have made infrequent records and stage appearances. Just recently Sydney Crooks has released the album Norris Cole & The Pioneers – “Peace Justice Liberty”, check the review here.
This cd comprises the albums “Long Shot” from 1969 on Trojan Records, produced by Leslie Kong and “Battle of the Giants” from 1970 also on Trojan Records and also a Leslie Kong production. As a bonus you’ll find seven rare and previously unissued tracks. Extensive liner notes and nuff pics complete this excellent release.
