5.0 out of 5 stars Beautifully Bunny, June 16, 2000

This review is from: Crucial Roots Classics (Audio CD)

An upful collection of conscious singles from one of the greatest Reggae stars ever. Bunny demonstrates all his abilities on this one: wordplay/humor (Baldheaded Woman), melodic sense (Innocent Blood), outspoken love for his people and intolerance of a hypocritical political system and tremendous production all the way around. One of the most beautifully expressive voices ever -- regardless of musical style. Bunny really shines as his own star on this one, backed up, as usual, by an all-star cast of top Jamaican musicians (including Sly & Robbie.) This CD definitely stands on its own.

4.0 out of 5 stars this is the good stuff..., May 15, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Crucial Roots Classics (Audio CD)

Usually someone is introduced to reggae thru the works of Bob Marley and then graduates later on to other reggae artists as time goes by. I feel this is an excellent transition piece into the true heart and spirit of reggae. Bunny Wailer has a way of creating roots music in its purest sense/form. Enough of my blabbering though...check this CD out for yourself. I can listen to the whole thing without skipping a single track. Crucial!
