Aswad's debut on Mango is still one of the band's strongest efforts. Nicely displaying the group's jazz-tinged, roots reggae sound, Aswad features such vocal highlights as "Can't Stand the Pressure" and "Concrete Slaveship," as well as the fine instrumental "Red Up." And while not as successful as their British peers Steel Pulse, Aswad still qualifies as one of the best roots outfits to emerge outside of Jamaica. A fitting start to the band's long and impressive run.

I prefer the version on ''New Chapter'' 1981 ; in my opinion Aswad was on it`s prime from 80-83.
One Love

Aswad made some great reggae before they lost it. I'd include this track for sure. Their Live & Direct album is one of the best reggae albums in my collection.
