Ripton Joseph Hylton was born in Kingston, Jamaica in 1957. He adopted the name “Eek-A-Mouse” after continuously losing bets on a racehorse of the same name.
“Anarexol”, which was recorded over Sound Dimension’s 1967 reggae instrumental (riddim) “Real Rock”, was a 1983 release in both Jamaica (Volcano) and UK (Greensleeves) as a single and on the album “Mouseketeer” in 1984.
The Real Rock Riddim is probably one of the most famous and influential riddims in the world of reggae music (and beyond) having been used by numerous reggae and dub artists throughout the years. It has also been sampled in other musical genres such as Hip-Hop and Rock.
