5.0 out of 5 stars Aswawesome!, October 16, 2001

Bruddah Haole (Listening to this album!) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Aswad (Audio CD)

Probably one of the best and most underrated Reggae albums of all time! This could pass for a Marley album to the casual listener. It's that good!

5.0 out of 5 stars The Very Best of Aswad, November 26, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Aswad (Audio CD)

There are two Aswad Albums that count: 'Aswad' and 'Live and Direct'. If you have never heard Aswad recordings, these are the ones you should go for. Unfortunately, these are the only two, the other ones being nowhere near as good.

5.0 out of 5 stars GREAT REGGAE CD!, January 4, 2008

Soul Bird - See all my reviews

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

This review is from: Aswad (Audio CD)

Wow! This tasty reggae CD is the best Aswad title available with soaring vocals and a good remastered 32 year old recording. I rate this as good as the first New World CD which is exceptional. In fact I usually play Aswad after New World. It has sophisticated arrangements with melodic songs. As a bonus there's some dub. Get this CD if you want a tasty reggae treat.
