| | Gregory Isaacs Gregory Issacs/John Holt CD Gregory Isaacs Discography of CDs
This three-disc set combines Gregory Isaacs' 1997 Mafia & Fluxy-produced album Hold Tight with 2004's In Dub (which collected dub versions done by Mafia & Fluxy drawn from Isaacs' Hold Tight project and 2004's Open the Door album), and tops everything off with John Holt's Reggae Heights album, which was also produced by Mafia & Fluxy. Each of these albums is available individually, and unless one is a very serious Mafia & Fluxy collector or fan, there's no particular reason to pick these three albums up as a set, although Isaacs and Holt are two of the finest singers Jamaica has ever produced and the rhythms created by Mafia & Fluxy are always full of a pleasant, bright, and mellow sunny day vibe. ~ Steve Leggett
(3-CD set) This compilation features legendary Jamaican performers John Holt and Gregory Isaacs. Hold Tight and In Dub, are two CD's featured within the box set, and the third CD is titled Reggae Heights featuring John Holt. With a host of world wide hit
Recording information: A Class Studio; Mafia & Fluxy Studio.

Gregory Issacs/John Holt
$17.69 Jamaican dancehall veteran Buju Banton has featured duets with a wide array of artists on his albums right from the beginning, and this two-disc 33-track compilation from VP Records collects several of them in one convenient package. There's none of the slackness here that brought Banton his first taste of fame (and controversy), and his remarkable (and critically lauded) conversion to socially conscious material is well in evidence. ...
| | Ani Difranco Dilate CD (1996)
Gregory Issacs/John Holt
$13.09 Expanding musically beyond the folk-rock-ish guitar pop of its two immediate predecessors, NOT A PRETTY GIRL and OUT OF RANGE, Ani DiFranco's seventh album in six years adds Hammond organ, synthesizer, bass, and even trumpet to what was once a stark musical vision. Though DiFranco supplies much of the instrumentation, longtime drummer Andy Stochansky and a few other collaborators assist.

| | Stephen Lynch 3 Balloons CD (2009)
Gregory Issacs/John Holt
$14.55 A respected comic actor in addition to being a musical funnyman, Stephen Lynch earns his laughs on 3 BALLOONS not from wacky hi-jinks or funky timing, but from the absurd incongruity between his gentle folk ballads and his often-dark, profanity-laced tales of waiting for AIDS test results and drug smuggling gone wrong. The dandy new hook on this 2009 record (his third) comes on the "Dear Diary" series, consisting of four one-minute entries of sunshine and hope, each with a devilish twist.
Whether heās singing an ode to an ailing grandfather (and the inheritance that his death will bring), breaking up with a girlfriend because of her racial make-up (sheās just ātoo whiteā), or opening the door to his mind to let the voices inside his head sing out, Lynch is a self-proclaimed "musician trapped in the body of a comedian." His unique blend of musical based comedy has earned him fiercely loyal fans around the world who live to experience his sold-out live shows, three best-selling CDs and DVDs, and his top-rated Comedy Central Specials. In March 2009 Stephen will release his fourth much anticipated CD, 3 BALLOONS and christen Comedy Centralās new live entertainment division by embarking on a four month, 25 city U.S. tour before ...
