EDITORS’ NOTES
Beres Hammond’s career might have begun in the mid-’70s, but it was in the ‘90s that his mix of American soul, classic reggae, and tinny dancehall riddims finally reached the charts. Hammond’s anguished pleas gave the canned drum machines and handclaps of songs like “Tempted to Touch” a warm, human center, turning them into hits in the process. His gritty vocals scuff up the click-clocking rhythms of “Sweetness,” while the lively flutes on “Putting Up Resistance” soften up the track’s mechanical beats, and his soft purring on “Can’t Stop a Man” reveals Hammond’s balance of toughness and tenderness.
