This is an absolutely riveting compilation of the ''boss reggae'' era. The real standout track is by The Melodians with ''Heartaches''. This track is sublime and will get the most disjointed individual relaxed and mellow. The other real standout is probably ''Somewhere'' by Ken Boothe. The Melodians are well known for their self-penned composition ''Rivers Of Babylon'', which was subsequently covered by a number of artists including famously by Boney M. Ken Boothe, is also known for his slick velvet like voice. This album is retro, vintage and made for dancing too, it would sound superb on a big mighty pair of speakers. It also contains 13 more additional tracks on the Doctor Bird release including some Delroy Wilson.
