I was so damn happy when I got this in the mail. I have been waiting to hear a studio version of The Youth for years and years. This cd was packaged nicely with lot of information and the cd itself is very Burning Spear. This cd is a must have especially for Burning Spear fans, but is also a must for fans of roots reggae and good music period. I just can't believe that this man has gone more than 30 years without a bad release. Everything by Spear is worth having.

Get this one soon. I wasn't able to find it here in the states and I have a feeling that it will be harder to find real soon. Don't miss it.

Burning Spear is the best reggae musician on tour no doubt. But he held out on releasing these songs for a long time because he wanted them to be special when he chose to release. Some fabulous dubs of previous works, as well as some hidden late 70's originals, this album has it all. Ranks up there with Marcus Garvey, Man in the Hills!!!

Great soulful singing from Burning spear, earli-ish vintage, good production, the first song alone is worth the album.

Burning Spears,spear burning is sooo dreaded and sooo good,rasta!!!!!!Blunted to its fullest,great production,great 16 page booklet and the Phillip Fullwood track "gave you my word"is an amazing repeated heartfelt song!!!!16 tracks of reggae bliss!!!!!One of the best in his uncompromising career!!!!Junior
