Joyous, anthemic, nyabinghi defiance. The masterful Leonard Dillon on song, beautifully backed by Stephen Taylor. Back-weh horns, twinkling hi-hats, perky piano. Yet more Niney genius. Ace, Tubbys-style dub.

Magnificent roots from 1996. An expertly dubwise rhythm, with rolling, nyabinghi drums, deep bass, and terrific trombone. Militant lyrics with no let-up; dramatically delivered, channelling Burning Spear and Pablo Moses.

A compelling Spear-style chant over a bumping rhythm, from 2000. Ace.

The African Brothers in full effect. Barry Brown does anthemic justice to this killer song, written by Tony Tuff; produced by Sugar Minott. The reasoning is bang on the money, over a lovely rhythm. The deadly dub is by Scientist, at Tubby’s. It’s a must.

Total murder. Sublime, implacably defiant, 100% roots reggae.
This previously unreleased, uncluttered mix hones in on the crushingly sweet singing, and its profound, crystal-clear message, straight to the head of the shitshow of wannabe dictators and mass murderers over-running the news.
‘Soul and power for the military hour,’ as Wailing Souls put it around the same time.
Hard-core loveliness.
