I first heard Dr. Israel doing Brain Damage on Dub Side of the Moon, the reggae version of the Pink Floyd album. After listening to him, I had to get his CD. This one is outstanding. It has a very complex beat that I have yet to tire of listening to, and I've had the CD for a few years. This is timeless music.

WELL, THIS COLLECTION OF SONGS IS ABSOLUTELY PHENOMENAL. I LOVE DUB, AND REGGAE, AND PUNK AND JUNGLE TRIP HOP TECHNO STUFF, AND SOMEHOW DR. ISRAEL BRINGS IT ALL TOGETHER.....DEEP DUB BASS LINES GET PUSHED OVER THE EDGE WITH TRIPPY DRUM LOOPS, GUITAR, AND SERIOUSLY TIGHT PRODUCTION TECHNIQUES...AND STELLAR VOCALS FROM THE DR. AND SOME BEAUTIFUL FEMALES ON BACKUP. ADD RANCID INTO THE MIX AND LORD KNOWS WHO ELSE AND OUT COMES THIS CLASSIC...I STUMBLED ACROSS IT AND I KEEP COMING BACK TO IT, TIME AND AGAIN, BECAUSE OF ITS POWER, FLUIDITY, AND HEART.
IT'S FAIRLY UNIQUE AND SCRATHES AN ITCH THAT FEW, IF ANY, CAN....

Since the first day I heard this CD, I've listened to it daily ever since. It's totally addicting - get it, you won't be sorry or bored with it after awhile.

An absolutely necessary album for anyone who enjoys uptempo reggae, ragga jungle or dub. The lyrics are sincere and well-spoken, the rhythms are solid. Good for breakdancing practice AND listening to on a rainy day. The album is replete with fresh new breaks, no stale amen breaks here. Just a fantastic album that never got the attention it deserved.
