Max Romeo - Wet Dream (Official Audio)

Official audio for Max Romeo’s risqué reggae UK chart hit from 1969. After making his recording debut fronting a vocal group, the Emotions, Maxwell Livingston Smith, aka Max Romeo, launched his solo career in 1968 with the widely banned, yet hugely popular ‘Wet Dream’. The nature of his work immediately following this surprise UK hit (the record peaked at number ten in the Spring of ‘69) either echoed its sentiments or focused upon matters of a more romantic nature, but by 1971 he diversified further, cutting a series of popular Rasta-flavoured sides that marked him as one of Jamaica’s leading roots singers. Throughout the remainder of the Seventies, he remained a leading figure in Jamaican music despite the great variance of the his output – his music ranging from blatant slackness to social commentary - and while he has long since eased off from his recorded and live work, he remains a hugely respected elder statesman on the reggae scene.
