In 1982, the young star hooked up with Lawes and the Radics for the masterful Mundell album, with the producer providing his best riddims and creating superb versions that still stand the test of time. For "Rasta Have the Handle" and "Tell I a Lie," Lawes lit up the backing with soulful brass solos from Felix "Deadly Headly" Bennett, with Nambo Robinson's trombone in support, and beautifully in counterpoint with Mundell's own emotive vocals and cultural themes.

Hugh Mundell was born in East Kingston, Jamaica, on the 14th July 1962, and shot dead there on October 14, 1983 while sitting in a car with a very young Junior Reid. Mundell was extremely young when he recorded his first tune for producer Joe Gibbs, the unreleased Where Is Natty Dread. However, his recording career really took off when his precocious talent impressed Horace Swaby better known as Augustus Pablo. Time and Place, an excellent roots album produced by Hugh Mundell and co-produced by Augustus Pablo, was a natural progression from Africa Must Be Free In 1983 and showed a new maturity in the singer’s angelic voice. Some of the wickedest cultural tracks featured on Time And Place and now also included here are Oh How I Love . Rastafari Call, Can’t Pop No Style, Short Man and Time Has Come.
