5.0 out of 5 stars Great Jimmy Cliff, August 26, 2000
By 
Paul LeBoutillier (Rimouski, Quebec Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Definitive Collection (Audio CD)
I just received this CD and may I say right now it is very good. I was looking for a Jimmy Cliff anthology, but none is complete. This one has great songs and good sonics. Happy, joyful music. Also nice discoveries (Sufferin' in the land). Missing are a few gems (The harder they come, Majority rules, Struggling man), but overall this is a good place to get started. The extra CD contains remixes and makes a great bonus. Amazon is the only website where I could find this package. I am most grateful to Amazon for offering me this unique set.

3.0 out of 5 stars good collection and interesting mixes, but..., September 19, 2000

This review is from: Definitive Collection (Audio CD)
Am I to guess that the mixes on this Cliff collection are proper reason to leave out many of Cliff's hits found on other best of collections?

Folks, there are better best of cd's for Cliff to be had. I suppose the hardcore fans of Cliff will get this to hear the remixes of the tracks listed (and they are good, to be sure), but the beginner can do better than this.
