4.0 out of 5 stars Brings back memories, October 25, 2000

This review is from: Dancehall 101, Vol. 2 (Audio CD)

An earlier reviewer described the music on the CD as new-school dancehall. I must politely disagree -- the reason I like this CD is because the songs are old classic dancehall tunes from the late 80s, early 90s, not new school by any means. Many of the artists aren't even really on the scene now, and the riddims are very different from new school dancehall, which has been heavily influenced by American hip hop. This album (and it's companion volume) would be an excellent choice for veteran dancehall fans who remember when these tunes first came out and would be glad to hear them again, or for more recent dancehall listeners who want to learn more about the earlier history of the music.

Yet another collection of the new school of dancehall, though the names and songs on this collection are quite fresh and exciting to listen to.

You probably know many of the names on this collection- Johnny Osbourne, Foxy Brown, Ninja Man, Shaba Ranks, and Cutty Ranks, and one of my favorites of the new school, the Pinchers. That's what makes this collection a decent one..good names, good grooves..

Nice collection..just listen to it.
