| | Reggae Gold 2004 CD (4 Customer Reviews)
The REGGAE GOLD series by VP Records has traditionally been a great way to sample a particular year's best and brightest reggae singles. The 2004 edition is no different and features a selection of tracks that fully captures the genre's broad array of styles. As such, the disc is split pretty evenly between old-school sounds, dancehall, and hip-hop/reggae hybrids. Highlights include Assassin's bawdy toasting tribute "Girls Gone Wild," a rock-steady remix of Alicia Keys's urban dating tale "You Don't Know My Name," and Tanya Stephen's sexually frank "Can't Breathe," which recalls Salt 'N Pepa's best rap anthems. A testament to Jamaican music's ever-growing diversity, REGGAE GOLD should appeal to anyone curious about the state of reggae in 2004. Reggae Gold 2004 Songs | 1. | In Her Heart - Capleton |

| | Strictly The Best Vol. 31 CD (2003)
Reggae Gold 2004
$13.05 The Strictly the Best series has always been reliable for delivering dancehall's big hits, but on their 31st volume they've reached a new plateau. With 2003 being the year dancehall found success on America's charts and rap acts like 50 Cent started to appear on dancehall's healthy bootleg mix CD industry, there's been quite a bit of trading of ideas among urban and ragga producers and both genres are all the more exciting because of it. The layering and quick samples on Elephant Man's "All Out" are right in line with Missy Elliot's stylish, hiccupping beats, and Sean ...

| | Tim Jensen Mind For The Scenery CD (2004)
Reggae Gold 2004
$11.49 From Tim Jensen, a sax player roving between the two areas of influence of Detroit and the Northwest (Portland to be exact), comes this, his second album. It's an interesting set, largely of original compositions. The range covered on the album makes it rather difficult to categorize, specifically as one style or another, but the bulk could be placed into a post-bop section, or the catch-all term of modern jazz. The album starts out with a nice opening groove, moving through some big band material followed by an arrangement of "Green Dolphin Street" featuring Jensen in full solo mode on the piccolo, of all instruments. It works surprisingly well. Some Dylan is given a bit of a lounge treatment, followed immediately by another nice groove, powered largely by the rhythm section. "Lament for Larry" comes across as something of an oddity, as a nearly showtune-style vocal is laid out by guest vocalist Brenda Baker (Jensen has spent time touring with Cats and Les Misérables, so it's not entirely inconceivable). On "Fiasco," Jensen moves over to the flute and pares down the musicians working with him a bit, leaving a sparser sound that they then use to mold into some very contrapuntal free jazz of sorts, mixed with a big band aesthetic that soon takes over a larger portion. Moreover, there are some excellent solos here by tenor saxist Rob Scheps, trumpeter Paul Mazzlo, and trombonist Jeff Uusitalo. On "Mambrino Flats," the emphasis on Dave ...
