“Have I Told You Lately” by Tina B
is a lovers rock reggae cover of the classic ballad (popularised by Van Morrison and Rod Stewart), notably recorded on a version of the “C. Dodd” (Coxsone Dodd) rhythm, often associated with the classic Studio One sound.
Artist: Tina B is a UK-based reggae singer known for her contributions to the lovers rock genre, a style of reggae defined by its romantic content and smooth, soulful delivery.
The Song: This track is a reggae re-imagining of the 1989 Van Morrison hit. While many versions exist, Tina B’s rendition is distinguished by its placement over a classic Jamaican riddim.
The Riddim: The reference to “C. Dodd” (Clement “Coxsone” Dodd) signifies that the track uses a foundational instrumental track originally produced at the legendary Studio One. Producers often reuse these “riddims” for new vocalists to create contemporary hits with a vintage feel.
Musical Style: The track features the characteristic “one-drop” or “steppers” drum pattern of reggae paired with melodic, pop-influenced vocals typical of 1990s and early 2000s UK reggae.
