Comment:

It's been so cold, cold, cold. I wanted to make a mix from a warmer clime but this set morphed into something hot, dark, and dangerous. Rasta righteousness with a few angry Brits thrown in for some cultural diversity.

I & I say rastafari. Superb mix Emery. On a personal note, I only rate the first UB40 album as any good or maybe Present Arms (Dub Version only) Keep em comin.'

Oh yeah, that Tosh song is a *great* opener. And it just cranks from there, top shelf all the way.

What the hell do I know about reggae? Ah yes: nothing. Still, congrats on Mix o' the Week. Although anyone called 'Burning Spear' sounds compelling in a violence-in-movies kinda way. Out.

I also don't know a heck-of-a-lot about reggae...but I did once take a small boat ride from St. Maartin to Anguila; just before boarding, some dude with a small entourage walks up with a guitar, selling tapes. He played on the pier & then boarded the ferry and played on the ship...so I bought a tape ($5.00 American)--can't find the tape anymore -- but it was a cool boat ride!
Congratulations on MotW...looks rockin' & boppin' mon...

THis looks wonderful George - been to Negril on 4 successive Thanksgivings in the 80's, just as the dj and electronic drums were creeping in. I much prefer the old stuff. What do you think is the best Augustus Pablo cd - have never heard him.

The best Augustus Pablo CD? Probably a toss up between East of the River Nile and King Tubbys Meets Rockers Uptown. Both have been recently remastered and reissued with bonus tracks.
