This review is from: Dancehall Business (Audio CD)

It's always nice to see a Sugar Minott lp, because I know what I'll be getting from him- a top notch quality collection of roots reggae meeting nice dancehall grooves.

While this lp is certainly not among the pantheon of exquisite releases ("Live Loving," "Roots Lovers," and "Black Roots," among several others) from the late 70's and early 80's that he released, making him a rising star in the dancehall scene, but it's clear that Minott is clawing his way back towards the top of the heap following a good decade or so of very lacklustre releases.

While the cover of the Association's cheesy "Never My Love" is not inspired, much of the rest of the lp is, anchored by the strong "Nice It Up," "River Jordan," and "The Vibes." Minott's voice sounds as good as it has in years, and perhaps his new association with Prince Jammy will help propel this icon of dancehall back to the heights of respect and glory that he so deserves.

Well done.
