Negative Positive
Title: Pretty disappointing
Review: I've been delving deep into roots reggae for about 8 years, but finally got around to checking out Third World just now. As my introduction to them, this compilation is not very good. Or maybe I just don't like the group's sound as much as all the other roots I've fallen in love with. Third World seems to lack a distinctive vocal sound. I found their harmonizing to be boring. The song that they're perhaps most known for, "96 Degrees in the Shade" is pretty mediocre in my opinion. Their version of Bunny Wailer's "Dream Land" is pretty weak. Maybe I need to check out their earliest albums, since the few songs on here I did think were decent were from their early days.
Is the review positive or negative?
