In a way, U-Roy has come full circle. The DJ started off interjecting his own comments between the vocal lines of classic songs in virtual duets, but quickly the original vocals all but disappeared. Now, however, they're back with a vengeance; in fact, every song within is credited as a duet, even one that's actually an instrumental! And so Serious Matter finds U-Roy returning to the sound system days of yore, singing along with the original vocals, playing off the lyrics, and sharing his utter delight about the tracks with the listener. And it's easy to be swept up with him, as he swings along to 17 classic recordings from such stars as Dennis Brown, Gregory Isaacs, Horace Andy, and Jimmy London. An equally impressive roster of musicians accompanies the DJ, the elite of Jamaica's session men. This large host creates an ever-shifting rootsy backdrop that shimmers from haunting to celebratory, reinvigorating all of the songs. ...

Morgan Heritage Full Circle CD (2005)

Reggae Gold 1999 songs

$10.45

Morgan Heritage have become standard bearers for roots reggae. Listening to the opening track here, it becomes apparent that they've taken ideas on board equally from Bob Marley and Third World. They're not afraid of making their sound commercial and accessible, although with a very pleasing thickness that's perfectly commendable. ...

Gregory Isaacs Extra Classic CD (1977) Bonus Tracks; Remastered; Special Edition

Reggae Gold 1999 album

$12.25

Overseen by Sidney Crooks and arriving in 1973, Gregory Isaacs' debut album, All I Have Is Love, cashed in on the singer's breakout hit single of the same title. The following year, Isaacs scored his first number one with "Love Is Overdue," just one of a slew of hits he recorded for Alvin Ranglin, who produced the singer's sophomore set, In Person, as well as its follow-up, 1977's Willow Tree. (These albums arrived later, and in a different order, abroad.) During this four-year period, Isaacs flitted through the Jamaican studios like a butterfly, working with myriad producers and unleashing a deluge of singles, many of them hits. Released in 1977, Extra Classic bundled up a dozen 45s from a host of producers, including Isaacs himself, as well as Crooks, Lee Perry, Pete Weston, Lloyd Campbell, and Augustus "Gussie" Clarke. The latter oversaw Isaacs' gorgeous cover of Dobby Dobson's "Loving Pauper," just one of the exquisite romantic numbers found here. The self-produced title track is arguably even more glorious, while "Once Ago" is an equal classic. The Crooks-overseen "Dread Locks Love Affair" took romance into the Rastafarian realm, with Isaacs urging his love to ignore her weeping parents and fall for him, while the lovely "My Religion" urged the baldheads to convert. As strong as these numbers were, the cultural ones were even more potent. Whether he was warning the wicked to keep out of "Rasta Business," telling "Mr. Cop" to cool down, or pleading with his "Jailer Jailer," Isaacs' sharp lyrics and emotive performances made these all instant classics. On the Campbell-produced "Black Against Black," the singer decried the violence sweeping his nation, noting what an improvement it would be if his black brethren became "Warriors" and joined the real battle. That latter number, incidentally, was a rousing self-produced cover of a Junior Delgado song. True to its title, this set was stuffed with classic numbers, with backings provided by the likes of the Aggrovators, the Revolutionaries, ...
