Although they are generally regarded as lightweight purveyors of orchestrated reggae-pop, Britain's Greyhound had moments of being something more, particularly on the Stax-meets-Jamaica instrumentals "Floating," "Funky Jamaica," and "Judgement Rock," all of which are included in this collection from Trojan, which is essentially their lone album, plus a few extra tracks. That Southern soul edge surfaces from time to time in these cuts, indicating what this band might have been, but Greyhound's bread and butter was in mainstreaming pop covers with big doses of heavy strings, and their big hits, like their version of Earl Robinson's "Black and White" (recorded a year before Three Dog Night tackled it) and the what-were-they-thinking rendition of Henry Mancini's "Moon River," are really nothing to write home about when all is said and done. Still, Greyhound had its moments, and all of them are here. ~ Steve Leggett
throughout the 1970s, this 5-man reggae group had a series of international hits, inc. the title track, which was a huge hit - here is their debut album from 1971, feat. the songs "Moon River" & "I Am What I Am"

Not many singers can sing "I am wanted by the evil forces" without sounding paranoid, but with Peter Tosh, you believe it. By 1982, Peter Tosh had been brutalized by the Jamaican police more than once. His chief crime was speaking out against the forces of oppression in his native land. As the wanted poster on the cover indicates, WANTED DREAD OR ALIVE finds Peter Tosh in a typically combative mode.

Black And White album
$12.65 
Contrary to the title, this is not a reissue of the 1972 Studio One album of the same name, although it does include many of that album's tracks, while also bundling up classic cuts from across the years, from the classic ska years into the rocksteady era and on into the reggae period, ending in the late '70s. Although the sleeve notes give a potted bio of the singer, they provide little help in dating many of these songs; more details are given about the actual backing bands, so it's a real test of the listener's expertise. The liner notes do include interviews with both Ken Boothe and producer Coxsone Dodd, however, which helps make up for the lack of hard info. And then there's the fabulous music itself. Several of the songs included are duets, including two stellar numbers with Delroy Wilson, while the ska classic "Artibella" ...

| | Selecter Too Much Pressure CD (1980) (Import) Import; Canada
Black And White music CDs
$17.99
At the time of its release, Too Much Pressure was relegated to second-class status behind the debut records by Madness and the Specials. Now it's easy to see that this record was the equal to the Specials record, and (this will be widely disputed) better than the first (and second) Madness records. Pauline Black is the key and she makes songs like "On My Radio" and the title track classic chunks of Caribbean-influenced pop rather than mere stylistic mimicry. Much better than the weak second record, Celebrate the Bullet, or the 1989 anthology, Selected Selecter Selections. ~ John Dougan
Unfortunately, this is not a reissue of Selecter's classic debut album, but instead a collection of some of that album's cuts along with some live recordings. ~ Joslyn Layne

Dwight was born in 1950 and grew up in rural New Hampshire when many people still worked in the mills or the logging industry. He caught the tail end of a way of life, spending 8 years in a two-room schoolhouse when the opening day of deer season was a de facto holiday. By the time he had hitchhiked to and from high school and graduated from Dartmouth College, the interstate highway had sliced through, and change was driving north. In the 30 years since college, Dwight has hiked and bicycled across the U.S, gotten married, divorced, and had two daughters. ...
