CD Reviews

A Fitting Tribute, but could use a 2nd volume

(4 out of 5 stars)

"Tommy McCook was an excellent saxaphonist and leader of the legendary skatalites band during their short exsistence. He then went on to work for Treasue Isle and producer Duke Reid, leading his rocksteady session band, the supersonics.This particular tribute(released shortly after his death)gives a relativelty good overview of his days at studio one, presenting such big hits as exodus, ska ba, freedom sounds, and latin goes ska, as well as some excellecnt lesser known tunes. Though this is a good showcase of tommy's ska days, its a shame not see his excellent time he spent at treasure isle at all represented. A good buy for an intro to the skatalites or the genious of tommy, but i would love to see another volume."
