From the moment I heard the song "Legalize It", I knew I had to own the album. It is one of the greatest reggae albums of all time. From beginning to end, this album makes us realize what a force Peter Tosh was and is to reggae music. His distinct personality shines on this album and lets us know he was the militant of the Wailers. "Let Jah Be Praised" is so strong, "Ketchy Shuby" is timeless. If there is one Tosh album you need in your collection, this is it.

"Ketchy" beats, great lyrics, and awesome sound. I've had this cd for a few years and it is still one my favorites. A must get.

The title track is the most important on the album, being the central cry of herbs men all over the globe. It is a battle cry for Legalizing a great mystical pleasure.

Other songs are instant reggae classics such as Burial, No Sympathy, and Why Must I Cry which was co-written by Bob Marley. This is made with musicians mostly from the Wailers and has a great sound.

I am a Bob Marley fan myself, so I thought this Album was great. Not quite as good as Bob Marley though. The tunes sound the same, even some of the lyrics sound the same. But go out and buy it, you may like it, I did!!!!!!
