Artists Not Unknown -- To Ben Thomas (who reviewed this earlier) and anyone else thinking about buying this. The artists on this compilation are not unknown at all. Some may be obscure, but there are others such as the great Toots & the Maytals, fantastic singer Edi Fitzroy, and worthy UK contenders Steel Pulse. If you do not recognize these names then you do need to brush up on your reggae knowledge. By all means, do check out Peter Tosh but don't let your musical education in regard to reggae end there. I think the bulk of this CD was recorded during the 80s which wasn't the era that most people are familiar with (that would be the original roots material of the late 60s and through the 70s) so don't come to this CD expecting soulful Marley type singing. It's a Beatles cover CD - it's pretty commerical stuff. If you're expecting something more you're fooling yourself. Me No Feel It Mon -- Bought dis CD but sound like no regaae to me mon. Sound like record company hype. Wish people go back to Roots and let jah be the provider. Clammy Clam, Hambo, Little Ras, give da good vibe but dem no here. I Can'T Believe How Bad This Is!!! -- Really bad cd! I didn't even listen to the whole thing. My wife turned off the music after the first three songs Seek (Further) And You Shall Find ... A Good Reggae Tribute -- I bought this CD with high expectations being a lover of both reggae and the Beatles. It has mediocre renditions at best. If you would like an excellent reggae tribute CD seek out Reggae Celebrates the Grateful Dead Vol 1. It is not that easy to find but is well worth the effort. Vol 2 is easier to find although not quite as good as Vol 1. But either one is still better than this CD. Save Your Money!!!!!! -- First. The production sounds terrible. Second. The music sounds even worse. It has a very slick production sound that lends itself to bubble gum sort of music. Not Reggae. I thought it was a joke at first but it is not. We resold it after we bought it. Binding : Music Download Genre : international-music Release Date : 2006-04-18 Running Time : 0 seconds See also:
