5.0 out of 5 stars This work is Winston Rodney's masterpiece!, August 23, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Social Living (Audio CD)
This cd is a true work of art. It contains enchanting beats in true Spear fashion. These songs will allow you to recall a captivating stage presence and true reggae ambasador. I always include tracks from this cd on tapes for friends!

5.0 out of 5 stars Intense, February 8, 2000
By 
This review is from: Social Living (Audio CD)
This album shows Burning Spear at his peak. The music is very intense and dark, where the expressive vocal style matches the repetive grooves perfectly. Listening to e.g. "Institution" or "Jah No Dead" there can be no doubt that BS is serious regarding the lyrical messages.

5.0 out of 5 stars Jah No Dead!!!..............8stars!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!, January 18, 2003

Fetus420 (San Marcos,Texas) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Social Living (Audio CD)
This is one of my favorite Burning Spear albums of all time I just finally got a hold of this album the other day (T.Y. Jah LOL)and believe me it wasn't easy since this album has never been issiued for release in the United States any ways this album is tied for 2nd best Burning Spear album of all time (on my list) of course "Marcus Garvey/Garveys Ghost" is First but, "Burning Spear"(self titled Studio One realease is very excellent and also impossible to get), Then you got "Hail H.I.M." a excellent album, then of course you got "Social Living" another excellent album so buy all the Burning Spear albums I just mentioned cause they all rule.!!!!!!!BURNING SPEAR RULES!!!!!!!!!!!Winston Rodney For President in 2004
