5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful Traditional Reggae to reckon with, January 3, 2001

By 

ANTHONY DOH KORANTENG (Bowie, Maryland United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Lion Rock (Audio CD)

Culture's Lion Rock has always touched my soul, spirit and heart. Lion Rock is very traditional Reggae that none of today's reggae players can macth up with. I've always rated Culture at the same level as the Ledendary Bob Marley - May he rest in Peace.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Joseph Hill Masterpiece., August 6, 2002

(REAL NAME)   

This review is from: Lion Rock (Audio CD)

This album, though made in 1982, still displays the lyrical power of Culture's 70's output. Two songs in particular Elijah and The Rasta Man stand out as gleaming examples of Hill's power to move through words. The whole album is strong both lyrically and spiritually and is more representative of Culture's spiritual side than the rest of their 80's output. Lion Rock came out before the breakup of the group and catches them close to their peak-still telling tales of the sufferer stuck in Babylon(Babylon's Big Dog and We Deh Ya Still)and the strength and power of faith.
Worth your time.

2.0 out of 5 stars Comparatively weak, March 4, 2001

By 

Tim Weber (Iowa) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Lion Rock (Audio CD)

With so much great Culture reggae available, this rather weak and uninvolving effort should be sought out by completists only. It sounds as though Joseph Hill is coasting on this effort, but he would recover.
