When the Virgin label first started reissuing material from its long-discontinued Front Line reggae imprint in the early '90s, it was a mixed blessing for roots reggae lovers. On the one hand, the reissue campaign made truly classic material available again for the first time in over a decade. On the other hand, each reissue tended to be a compilation of tracks taken from several albums, all of which deserved their own individual reissues (the label would move in that direction the following decade, releasing a number of those albums individually and with original cover art). This Gladiators compilation is a case in point, offering a generous program of 19 tracks culled from no fewer than four albums and one 12" single originally released between 1976 and 1979. The bulk of the program comes from the classic Trench Town Mix Up album; tracks such as "Eli Eli" and "Chatty Chatty Mouth" remain excellent examples of bandleader Albert Griffiths' unique melodic talent and the trio's reedy and affecting vocal harmonies. The 12" is "Pocket Money," another very well-chosen track, and there are also gems from the albums Naturality ("Naturality," "Struggle") and Proverbial Reggae ("Stick a Bush"). Highly recommended to fans of harmony-group reggae in particular and of the roots-and-culture period in general. ~ Rick Anderson

$13.95 
This superb collection, which consists primarily of rare tracks, shows Albert Griffiths and his band at the height of their powers in the early to mid-'70s. The core of the album is fifteen tracks recorded at Clement Dodd's Studio One, and there's a surprising variety of sound in evidence, from the drum machine-driven version of "Roots Natty" to the dark and reverb-drenched setting of "Bongo Red." While the Gladiators were a harmony trio along the ...
| | Cradle Of Filth Midian CD (2000)
Dreadlocks The Time Is Now music CDs
$14.29 
As satanic as anything need be, Cradle of Filth are a black metal ensemble from Suffolk, England, who've managed to keep it extreme, while being wildly popular internationally. They may be the most popular black metal band in the world because they've managed to break away from the genre's relatively small cult following and successfully infect all sorts of disaffected teenagers, especially in Europe. They never veer drastically from the usual black metal staples: movie monster-type vocals, lots of high-pitched screams, indecipherable lyrics, and relentless, punishing riffs. But Midian has its fair share of melody too. (Most of the finest metal does have some element of melody.) The album begins with a chorus of what sounds like some evil monks chanting and is at its very best when the ominous, classical-style keyboards kick in. ...

| | Roy Buchanan Live In Japan CD (2003) (Import) Germany
Dreadlocks The Time Is Now album
$18.39
LIVE IN JAPAN was recorded during the British blues guitarist's 1977 Japanese tour, and includes both Roy Buchanan originals and covers ranging from Larry Williams' "Slow Down" to Don Gibson's "Sweet Dreams."
Live in Japan (2003) is said to have been Roy Buchanan's favorite of all his platters, and ironically, it was never issued stateside. However, as word spread, the title became an essential addition to his discography. Fact is that it may have never come out at all, had there not been a loophole in Buchanan's contract with former label Polydor, giving them control over his non-North American output. Joining the guitarist for his 1977 tour of Japan are John Harrison (bass), Malcolm Lukens (keyboards), ...
