At their chilliest, most magnificent and dread. 
Brilliantly remastered; one-sided.

A brilliant, taut take on vintage Wackies, there on the flip.

Their epochal 1997 masterpiece inaugurating the Rhythm & Sound label.
Half an hour of judge-long-sentence steppers.
A stone masterpiece of modern dub, towering over the field till kingdom come.

Irresistible mid-eighties dancehall vibes from Music Mountain Studios.

Early-eighties UK roots fire originally rolling out of Peckham in South London, on the Kim label, by way of Jay Dees record shop in the High Street.
Both sides are deep, reverberating, hypnotic, zonked, dread, Wackies-style murder.

Family Man and Jimmy Riley had worked together in the late sixties — a Hippy Boy and a Unique — way before this terrific collaboration in tough, anguished sufferers, woozy with the natural mystic, around the same time as Cobra Style. Signature Wailers music-making seals the deal, with classy, burning horns.

The CD adds the Majority Rule album, also from 1978.

Ritchie McDonald from the Chosen Few rides Glen Brown’s stunning Dirty Harry rhythm.
Dark, haunted, portentous singing — a dream-like blend of Barry White and Keith Hudson — over some of the heaviest, most concussive reggae music of all time.
On the flip, Tommy McCook props up the body and kills it again.
Almighty, off-the-scales roots. Completely unmissable.

“Tune into the king of sounds and blues, that you will never refuse, you gots to pick and choose before you lose. On the Pantomine label. Crossroads, Caledonian Place, you know where. Do it to it, Gods Sounds, y’know.”
