In the early 1980s, one London recording studio became the favoured hang out for visiting Jamaican producers and British reggae musicians alike. Easy Street Studios in Bethnal Green had humble beginnings, but was soon pouring out an impressive run of hit tunes by artists like Sugar Minott, Winston Reedy, Alton Ellis and Barrington Levy.

Phil Pratt: “Well, Easy Street was a bit like a party place them
times. There was a backroom where everybody can go round there
and do what them want do, you understand me, it was nice man.
Cos in those days everybody get tipsy and drink, cos it was like fun
those times, and we get together and come up with some good
things. Everybody who come from Jamaica would work at the studio
cos it had the best sound, the bottom was superb, so 95% of the
reggae tune made up here was made at Easy Street. It was a good
sound and me met some good fellow out of it too.”
