Roots group Link And Chain, fresh from celebrating their 35th anniversary in 2021, are back with a new song titled "Guide Me Jah", produced by Issachar Musik.
Dwight Campbell, one of the quartet's three original members, says while the group stays true to their non-commercial policy, they would welcome some chart success.
"A hit song for us would mean a lot to our career. It would change the whole dynamics of our operations....more work could be done in terms of writing, recording, tours. Plus it's what every artist hope for...that recognition, it kinda set you free," he said.
"Guide me Jah" is done to the beat of The Cables' "What Kind of World", which has driven many a hit single over the years including "21 Girl Salute" by Barrington Levy and Morgan Heritage's "Down by The River".
Paul Williams and Trevor Douglas are the other original members in Link & Chain. Oniel Griffiths joined five years ago.
Link & Chain are from Port Maria, a coastal town in St. Mary parish, Jamaica. Early in their career, they recorded a number of songs for Lawrence “Jack Ruby” Lindo, best known for producing "Marcus Garvey", Burning Spear’s seminal album.
Jack Ruby produced songs for "New Day", their first album.
"S.T.O.P.", a follow-up album produced by Philip “Fatis” Burrell, was released by RAS Records.
Campbell and his colleagues are anticipating a fruitful year.
"Plans for us this year is to continue on the journey doing what we love to do...putting out new music on IssacharMusik label...and working with some great musicians who are putting the tracks together," he said.
