This review is from: Soul Rebels (Audio CD)

From memory this record also is out on trojan, but at the moment i own the JAD remasters one. If you like early reggae, wailers, rocksteady, or are a big bob marley and the wailers fan this cd is a must. This record is from the wailers upsetter days and is a classic. Sound quality for such old recordings is excellent. This is alot better if your after original tracks than the bootlegged versions you see in the shops for cheap with the soundquality of a gramophone. stand out tracks for me include
1.Soul rebel - This track confirms Aston Baretts status as one of the best reggae bassists of all time, the bass line is incredible, this is back in the late 60's early 70's, so imagine how good he is now!,
5. My Cup- a well done cover of james browns song 'ive got to cry,cry,cry', bobs vocals ar as always, tops on this track as is bunny and peters backing.
10. no water - what can i say? a great track, very funky and a great track to listen to, i like bunnys funky backing too,
11. Reaction, starts off with that upsetter sound, a good solid rhythm, in which bobs soulful vocals drift over the top of, with bunny and petes backing vocals the icing on the cake. and lastly the bonus track
13. jah is mighty - a rare track, a good rhythm, with some of the classic lyrics off 'corner stone' combined with fresh lyrics ' behold jah is mighty', bobs outstanding on this track in praise of jah.
overall this is a great cd, im especially pleased that on this cd its got the classic tracks which i was after, with great sound quality which is a change!, an excellent buy for early wailers fans for sure, 5 STARS!
