(2020) Delano Stewart - Stay a Little Bit Longer [Deluxe Edition]
Review:
First things first: the smiling woman on the cover of Delano Stewart’s Stay a Little Bit Longer, is not the artist but rather a model. Winston Delano Stewart is the male singer of ’60s rocksteady group The Gaylads, formed in Kingston, Jamaica when Stewart and his singing partner Harris “B.B.” Seaton decided to expand their sound. In 1968, Stewart struck out on his own and embarked on a successful solo career. 1970’s Stay a Little Bit Longer, his debut solo platter, has been reissued by Doctor Bird as a deluxe 2-CD edition with 60 tracks (13 new to CD), greatly expanding the original 12-song LP. Stay a Little Bit Longer resulted from Stewart’s short but creatively fertile affiliation with Sonia Pottinger, a pioneering female producer and impresario. Having dipped her toes into the music business when her husband Lindon opened a studio in 1961 (the first in Jamaica to be owned by a black person), she stayed in the business after she and Lindon separated. She opened a record store in addition to multiple labels including High Note, to which Delano was signed. The Trojan release of a Stay a Little Bit Longer collected twelve High Note singles of Delano’s – all original songs save a cover of Marvin Gaye’s “Wherever I Lay My Hat (That’s My Home).” The release of the LP promised to make Stewart a major name in Jamaica, but he soon left the country to start anew in America. Sadly, only a few more singles materialized on small labels throughout the 1970s as he pursued careers outside of music. The first disc of this expanded reissue adds four bonus tracks from Delano Stewart including three alternate versions and one originally-unissued outtake. It then presents Dr. No Go, a previously unreleased compendium from 1970 of Sonia Pottinger’s productions for Trojan Records featuring Delroy Wilson, The Conquerors, The Hippy Boys, and others. The second disc boasts another 30 tracks from Pottinger’s discography, first released in 1969-1970 on the High Note and Gayfeet labels. While Delano Stewart is the headlining artist of this CD – and it collects the entirety of his solo ska and rocksteady recordings – it’s more of a primer for Pottinger, who retired from music in 1985 and received an Order of Distinction (OD) from the Jamaican government in 2004 for her contributions to the country’s culture.
