    Dandy Livingstone

    Dandy Livingstone (born Robert Livingstone Thompson, 14 December 1943, Kingston, Jamaica) is a Jamaican reggae musician and producer.


    Dandy Livingstone moved to the United Kingdom in the late 1950s. When London-based [url=http://www.discogs.com/label/Carnival]Carnival Records were seeking a Jamaican vocal duo, Livingstone filled the requirement by double-tracking his own voice, releasing records in this fashion under the name [url=http://www.discogs.com/artist/Sugar+%27N%27+Dandy]Sugar & Dandy.

    Dandy signed with [url=http://www.discogs.com/label/Ska+Beat]Ska Beat Records in 1967 and released his debut album entitled "Rocksteady with Dandy" in 1968. The same year he moved into production and formed the duo [url=http://www.discogs.com/artist/Dandy+%26+Audrey]Dandy & Audrey with Audrey Hall. He later produced the monster hit "Red Red Wine" with Tony Tribe.

    In 1968, Livingstone signed to [url=http://www.discogs.com/label/Trojan+Records]Trojan Records and got his own Trojan subsidiary, [url=http://www.discogs.com/label/Downtown+(4)]Down Town Records.
