Johnny Osbourne unlocks one of his own key recordings with 'We Need Love', joined by Tarrus Riley and Dean Fraser, but the track's lineage runs further back than that. Its riddim originates in Otis Gayle's 1972 Studio One cut of 'I'll Be Around', shaped under Clement "Coxsone" Dodd with Jackie Mittoo's organ line anchoring the arrangement. Osbourne's 1979 version reframed it as a devotional roots piece; this update keeps that structure intact, adding Riley's smoother counterpoint and Fraser's sax as a linking voice across eras.
