Now most of his Groundation band mates are temporarily putting their energy in Rising Tide, Harrison Stafford can once again focus on Professor, now changed to Harrison Stafford & The Professor Crew. 'One Dance' is not as heavy in tone as predecessor 'Throw Down Your Arms', for which Stafford drew on the impressions his trip to Israel and Palestine left him with. Title track 'One Dance' is a catchy ska tune in which Harrison seems to want rally the listener into dancing away all misery, but the most notable track on 'One Dance' is 'Young Dread', for which Stafford used an excerpt from Mario Savio's 'Bodies Upon The Gears' or 'Operation Of The Machine' speech. In the early nineteen sixties, Savio was a political activist and a member of the Berkeley Free Speech Movement, and thus was at the forefront of the global student protests of that period. With 'California' Harrison pays tribute to The Golden State, a place he off course also calls home. In addition to nine vocal cuts, 'One Dance' also contains three excellent dub versions concluding the album.
