"In my mind, Handsworth Revolution is a riveting album. Songs such as Klu Klux Klan, Prodigal Son, are more than songs..they are a lyrical masterpiece. When the album first starts and you hear the bassline from Handsworth...just brings you into another world for a moment. I strongly recommend this album, Tribute to the Martyrs and also Aswad's Not Satisfied & Hulet if your into this "type" of reggae. The vocals sound more harmonic and almost in a chant like state at times. Makes the sound and it's message very impactful. Hope you enjoy."

Great reggae.

"already discovered the treasures of bob marley? already have "the harder they come" soundtrack? love burning spear and toots and the maytals? wondering where to turn now in the world of reggae? let me suggest this album. "handsworth revolution" is a reggae classic, brimming with soul, great rhthyms, creativity (there's even a spanish type guitar intro to the tune "prediction"), and warm passionate songs. a total winner."
