4.0 out of 5 stars Largely Unheralded...but Essential, February 14, 2005

This review is from: Production Something: Best of 1 - 12" Mixes (Audio CD)

This is my favorite Culture album and one of my favorites of any artist or genre. The only thing I could fault is some of the sound quality is sub-par on a few songs, but this is not unusual for some of the older reggae albums. The music, all heartfelt and deeply spiritual, is backed up by the Joseph Hill's powerful lyrics. Songs like "Too Long In Slavery", "Children of Israel", "Trod On", and "Black Rose" are genuine rasta anthems and the balance of the songs are all fine examples of Jamaican roots reggae...making this an absolutely essential addition to any reggae collection.

4.0 out of 5 stars Culture discomix galore!, March 3, 2003

Six of these nine tracks dubbed by Errol Brown at Treasure Isle. Chris Wilson remixed tracks 1, 3, and 6. Every track is excellent, and extended. There's almost 70 min of music on here!

Garvey is probably better known as "Down in Jamiaca", and is, in my opinion, the best discomix on this release. Dog a Nyam Dog is a close second however. The title track boasts a competent DJ toast by Joseph Hill himself.

Note that if you have already bought "Trod On", you will hear considerable track duplication here...
