BROWN & FRIENDS - RHYTHM MASTER VOLUME 2 |
| With
the introduction of the digital disk, the
concept of a RIDDIM CD was born. Same
riddim, many different versions. This album
takes that concept in their re-release of a
couple of early Jamaican Roots Reggae. |
|
|
 |
| GREGORY
ISAACS - RASTA BUSINESS |
| Known
as "The Cool Ruler" because of his
many love songs, on this album Gregory shows
that he knows his roots and culture. A
classic Rasta album, very much recommended
to all Roots lovers. |
|
|
 |
| GREGORY
ISAACS - MR. ISAACS |
| Cool,
cool roots music. Blood and Fire did it
again with this set of truly hard to find
Gregory tunes, including a special version
of "Slavemaster", from the movie
Rockers. |
|
|
 |
| GREGORY
ISAACS - MR. ISAACS |
| Mr.
Isaacs is best known for his Lover's Rock,
but this one has the more heavy Roots and
even DUB Mixing. Check out
"Handcuff" and "Slave
Driver", before realizing this is one
of Mr Isaacs best ones. |
|
|
 |
| GREGORY ISAACS
- SOON
FORWARD |
| Gregory
Isaacs produced by the Rhythm Twins.
Stricktly Rockers, and most tracks come with
their dub versions in one extended mix. |
|
|
 |
| GREGORY
ISAACS - SLAVE MASTER |
| The
title track for this album has been featured
in the legendary movie "Rockers".
But the rest of the album is equally great:
The Cool Ruler showing his Roots. |
|
|
 |
| HORACE
ANDY - MASSIVE |
| Sure,
there's a lot of tunes on this album you can
get on other ones, too. But just check it
out: you might find that you don't have all
the mixes. A very special version of
"Fever", for example. |
|
|
 |
| HORACE
ANDY - DANCE HALL STYLE |
| Crucail,
crucial, just crucial! Extended mixes where
a relatively young Horace Andy sings on top
of some of the fattest and heaviest DUB
Mixes from the days of early Dancehall.
Don't confuse this with anything else but
Roots Reggae in a DUBWISE style when full
lyrics are sung over these DUB mixes. This
is a must have! |
|
|
 |
| HORAce
andy - wicked dem a burn |
| Horace
Andy's works come from several decades in
which he kept singing with a strong voice.
In this interesting collection of his works
from the 1970's you can hear how a child
becomes a man. |
|
|
 |
| HORACE
ANDY - GOOD VIBES |
| A
great selection of tracks, including some
extended ones. Horace Andy can't go wrong as
this one proofs once again. Good Vibes
contains a selection of his earlier works. |
|
|
 |
| HORACE
ANDY - EXCLUSIVELY |
| This
album starts of with a cool tribute to the
King of Reggae, Bob Marley. All other tunes
are a must have, too. Especially because
they are not all that known. And if they do,
the mixes are a little diffferent. Nice
mixing, by the way... Good singing, and
crucial riddims again. |

| HUGH
MUNDELL - BLACKMAN FOUNDATION |
| Who
says that young people don't know a thing?
Just listen to the lyrics by Hugh Mundell,
as he sings them over what can only be
described as crucial Jamaican Roots Rockers
Reggae of the highest quality. |
|
|
 |
| HUGH
MUNDELL - AFRICA MUST BE FREE |
| Hugh
Mundell died much too young. He was still a
teenager. But the music he left behind is
timeless still. Hear the potential in word
and sound in this classic album. |

 |
| ISRAEL
VIBRATION - THE SAME SONG |
| This
was the debute album by this legendary vocal
trio. Financed by the Twelve Tribes Of
Israel, "The Same Song" introduced
the world to this remarkable group. |
|
|
 |
| ISRAEL
VIBRATION - UNCONQUERED PEOPLE |
| The
follow-up for their incredible debute album
took Israel Vibration to a next level. Their
music is full of spiritual themes and their
heartical voices have touched the souls of
many unconquered people. |
|

 |
| Johnny
Clarke - Dreader Dread (1976-1978) |
| Vocal
tracks with an occasional extended mix to
complete this nice compilation of early
Johnny Clarke material will definitely
contribute to your Reggae MP3
collection. |
|
|
 |
| JOHNNY
CLARKE - BE THANKFUL |
| All
of the material on this album is produced by
Bunny Lee, and most of them come from the
late 1970's when Roots Rockers and the
Flying Cymbals were ruling the
dance. |

1975-1978 |

 |
| JUNIOR
DELAHAYE - SHOWCASE |
| there
is not a good reason why this singer hasn't
got some more attention. His extreme
soulfull singing is remarkable. Another
proof of Jamaican talent! |
