5.0 out of 5 stars
another gem, September 18, 2000
"Guns Don't Argue," released in 1971, was Alcapone's sophomore effort, but there is nothing spohomoric about it at all.
The tracks show an amzing growth in a period of mere months betweem his debut lp "Forever Version" and this one. His maturity level is startling for a man who was only 23 when it was recorded. All that being said, the lp is a giant leap forward for Alcapone, and certainly solidified his place in the inner sanctum of toasters, ranking with U-Roy as undisputed master of the style.
The price is a bit much, as it is an import cd, and I realize that, but fans of the toasting style will quickly admit that this is a small price to pay to hear greatness, and I would fully concur with them. This album is a gem among gems and well worth the small splurge on the credit card and the wait to get it. You won't regret it once you get it.
