Get Up Adina

Recorded in Jamaica for Leslie Kong’s Beverley’s label, with Desmond Dekker backed by The Four Aces. The release is identified on surviving discographic sources as a 1965 Beverley’s single and a Leslie Kong production. It was one of Dekker’s early Beverley’s-era ska records and part of the run of singles that established his name with Jamaican audiences. Later reissues and archive collections have kept it in circulation as a representative early session from his Beverley’s period. The song remained part of Desmond Dekker compilations and archive sets, including collections focused on his early Beverley’s recordings. Its continued reissue history has kept it available to ska and reggae listeners long after the original 1960s release.
