CD Reviews

Better and more original than who?
Fidelio | Connecticut, USA | 05/31/2004
(5 out of 5 stars)

"This is an amazing original gem. You will not be disappointed. I base my opinions, and they are mine, on the originality and quality of the songs on this cd. The quality of the songs is just mind boggling. The man has such a fantastic smooth voice that can take you away. The songs are pure and his voice resonates with charm and sincerity, which is rare to hear these days. The music represented here has also that very beautiful feeling of intimacy. I say this because some of the songs have that certain "recorded with a tape recorder" quality, which brings forth that
certain closeness with the artist and the feelings he projects. Highly recommended! Best reggae music that I have heard in a long long time. Very honest and beautiful music here. Reggae or not. It feels like discovering something new again! Right on."
