CD Reviews

If you like old time reggae you won't be dissapointed

Dries | 01/30/2005

(5 out of 5 stars)

"All songs that are about repatriation. Musically very good. Disc 1 is late sixties, early seventies and is in my opinion the best of the two. Disc 2 is early to late seventies, also good, but some filler (like the Horace Andy and Johnny Clarke songs) though not much.

Standout tracks "Going Back Home" Vibrators feat. Count Ossie; Bob Marley's "African Herbsman" off course, "Repatriation" by one Audley Rollins, followed by a great dj version by I Roy; "African People" Winston Jarett; "Rastaman Going Back Home" Flowers & Alvin; "I Man A African" The Sons of Selassie (lead vocals: Max Romeo); "Land Of Love" Sons of Light (Lee Perry production); "Got To Go Home" Ronnie Davis; "Majority Rule" Jimmy Riley.

Conscious soul music that should not be forgotten. Definitely 5 stars."
