Title: Awful, just awful
Review: I recently heard "Israelites" on a Stiff compilation and thought "Wow, this is great. When it came out I thought it was horrible." So we bought this CD (note the good reviews here). Yup, I was right the 1st time. The Stiff version is different; this one isn't the worst thing I've ever heard, but sooooo close.The rest of the CD is even worse: it's like listening to a lounge band do "jive": there's no soul, no bottom, no feeling of any kind. Great elevator music. No wonder DD appealed to the masses who thought mainstream Reggae was too strong. This is the Brothers Four of Reggae.In the movie "Head Office" Rick Moranis says "I know crap when I see it, and this is crap." Don't buy this unless you thought the Kingston Trio were funky and got down.
Is the review positive or negative?
