Maverick a Strike

The 1523rd greatest album of all time

Finley Quaye's 1997 debut studio album Maverick a Strike blends reggae and dub foundations with contemporary electronica and pop sensibilities. The record uses reverberant dub production, warm basslines and skittering electronic beats beneath Quaye's relaxed, soulful vocals, yielding an eclectic, genre-blurring sound that stood out in the late 1990s British music landscape.
