 (2 Customer Reviews)
Long hailed as a roots classic, THE SAME SONG is the full-length debut of the popular reggae trio known as Israel Vibration. The group's members, Cecil Spence, Albert Craig and Lascelles Bulgrin have known each other and have been performing together for many years. All were crippled in infancy during Jamaica's 1950s polio epidemic and met in Kingston's Rehabilitation Center. They were expelled from the center when they began to grow dreadlocks in accordance with their Rastafarian beliefs, and thereafter supported themselves with their music.
THE SAME SONG, released in 1978, is stirring, straightforward roots reggae, characterized by the trio's distinctive, gentle harmonies and strong Rastafarian messages of tolerance, understanding and transcendence. The title track, "Why Worry," and "Walk The Streets Of Glory" are only some of the standout cuts here. THE SAME SONG belongs in any comprehensive reggae collection.
Israel Vibration: Wiss, Skeleton, Apple.
Additional Personnel: Mikey Chung (guitar, organ, piano); Dean "Youth Sax" Frazer (saxophone); Nambo (trombone); Ansel Collins, Youth Bubbler (organ); Augustus Pablo, Robert Lyn (piano); Robbie Shakespeare, Phillip Fullwood, Mikey Chung (bass); Calvin McKenzie, Sly Dunbar, Max Edwards (drums); Sky Juice, Sydney Wolfe (percussion).

Same Song album
 $14.29  
One of the masterpieces of the roots era, no album better defines its time and place than Two Sevens Clash, which encompasses both the religious fervor of its day and the rich sounds of contemporary Jamaica. Avowed Rastafarians, Culture had formed in 1976, and cut two singles before beginning work on their debut album with producers the Mighty Two (aka Joe Gibbs and Errol Thompson). Their second single, "Two Sevens Clash," would title the album and provide its focal point. The song swept across the island like a wildfire, its power fed by the apocalyptic fever that held the island in its clutches throughout late 1976 and into 1977. (Rastafarians believed the apocalypse would begin when the two sevens clashed, with July 7, 1977, when the four sevens clashed, the most fearsome date of concern.) However, the song itself was fearless, celebrating the impending apocalypse, while simultaneously reminding listeners of a series of prophesies by Marcus Garvey and twinning them to the island's current state. For those of true faith, the end of the world did not spell doom, but release from the misery of life into the eternal and heavenly ...
| | Jacob Miller Who Say Jah No Dread CD (1992)
Same Song CD music
$12.25
There are those who argue that all reggae sounds the same, and that roots reggae, in particular, consists entirely of minor variations on a very small set of musical (and, Jah knows, lyrical) themes. Reggae aficionados will agree, to a point (though they may point out that the same can be said of Baroque music, big-band jazz, and bluegrass). But push the point too far and you run the risk of having an album like this one brought out and played for you from beginning to end, which won't take long since it only includes about a half-hour of music. Who Say Jah No Dread consists of the six songs Jacob Miller recorded with legendary producer Augustus Pablo, and the dub versions of those tunes, all of which were mixed by King Tubby; talk about a triple threat. This album is one of a few hard, compact gems of roots reggae, a classic so inarguable that even the most intransigent reggae skeptic might be won over by its dark, mystical charms. All of the rhythm tracks on this album have become classics, none more deservedly than ...

Bridget BallSinger/Songwriter \"This heart won\'t ever give upThis heart is made of steel.\"From \"Heart of Steel\" by Bridget Ball Strong words. Strong melodies. Strong performances. These are what have put Bridget Ball in front of audiences from the Smithsonian to concert halls and festivals, to radios in living rooms and dashboards across the country. Bridget was born and raised in central New York State, where the foothills of the Adirondacks melt into the rolling hills of New England and the Midwest begins to weave its love affair with the horizon. Her music was born and raised there too, in the tap rooms and taverns, hardware stores and kitchens of a people living and dying, laughing and loving in the crossroads of America. Bridget has eight recordings to her credit, each of which has enjoyed heavy airplay on radio stations nationwide that feature folk/acoustic music. Artists who have contributed to her recordings include such acoustic innovators as John Sebastian, Cindy Cashdollar (Asleep at the Wheel), Garth Hudson (The Band), Artie Traum, Jay Ungar, Tony Trischka, Steve Riley, and Bill Staines. Bridget also has been featured in several public television documentaries, ...
