  • very!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! uplifting!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • big big tune we need to get back to the positive music and move away from the garbage they pass off as music today

  • Rewind; Haul and pull: Notting Hill Carnival 1976 under the flyover at Portobello Road before it went posh. Sound system boomed this tune out at 3am. Gathering of like minded people on a soft warm summer's early early morning. The Sound (local boys) dropped riddims like this till sunrise. No one seemed to mind, it was part of the Grove vibe - then. Why did life get so complicated?.

  • reggae roots good bendiciones lima-peru

  • Revisited this after reading in the Guardian (23 July 2011) that it's David Rodigan's favourite. He said: "I first heard this on a Studio One compilation ... and it just blew me away. I couldn't believe how beautiful and haunting and … disturbing it was. It seemed to speak volumes for what the black race had endured in slavery. Apart from what they were saying, it was the sound of Bernard Collins's vocal and the swirling harmonies behind him that just touched my nerve ends."

  • Music from the Hills, selah

  • A joy to listen to conscious lyrics. "Get up & fight for your rights, my brother/sister." Love it!!!
