Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com

Twelve vocalists, including Baaba Maal, Gavin Friday, and Chaka Demus & Pliers guest on this globehopping dance/pop confection masterminded by PIL's original bassist. The musical time-zone jumps are frequent and rather facile, but there are plenty of intriguing moments here--particularly when Dolores O'Riordan (The Cranberries) sets her Celtic wail against mbaqanga guitars on the first single, "The Sun Does Rise," and Wobble grows ecstatic on "I Love Everybody." --Jeff Bateman

Product Description

1994 album featuring guest appearances from Baaba Maal, Gavin Friday, Natacha Atlas & Najma.

5.0 out of 5 stars Get it While You Can, May 27, 2004
By 
Jamo (Denver, CO USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Take Me to God (Audio CD)
A modern masterpiece. Lush, worldly, boldly sensual and spiritual without self consciousness or guile. If you have an iota of groove in you, you must have this. Order now! I wore out my first copy and am moving through my second. Everyone I recommend it to loves it and buys other JW stuff. If you are a bass player it will shake you to your foundation in a very good way. What can I say? The guy is criminally underappreciated, but you can do your part to make him the superstar he should be. Funky? You bet. World? Absolutely. Genius? Undoubtedly. You will thank your God JW is on the same planet. You will become closer to God.

5.0 out of 5 stars Quite taken, July 4, 2001
This review is from: Take Me to God (Audio CD)
This is Jah Wobble's most accessible album. But that said, it's far from being mainstream, it's too complex, too beautiful. No song is like one other, the music changes, language, singers, rhythm, mood, prose, everything changes - akin to the Red Queen who runs to stay in place, JW moves about building a solid, lasting masterpiece, which yet remains elusive, fluent in all tongues, an abode of the restless. In the first sentence of "Hundred Years of Solitude" Gabriel Garcia Marquez depicts a man facing execution while remembering a certain occasion when he was a little boy. The lyrics of "I love everybody", exclaimed with a ranting and callous voice, are similarly cruel but upraising, touching life and beyond. "Becoming more like God" is one of the strangest songs I've ever heard - Pop meets/becomes God, a hymn for a church yet to be founded. If you think this seems all too weird, and who is Jah Wobble anyway? don't be put off - the music is fantastic.

5.0 out of 5 stars Enlightened Pop Music., June 26, 2005
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Take Me to God (Audio CD)
Take Me to God was a disc that Jah Wobble and his Invaders of the Heart produced during the mid-90s'. The disc even had a minor hit "The Sun Does Rise". The disc is an enlightened masterpiece from Jah Wobble. The Invaders of the Heart take you on the trip around the world showing it's listener that everywhere music is just a simple beat and we call all become more like god each in their own way. Mere words cannot do this album justice. Jah Wobble has gone through a lot of trials and tribulations over the years. It's great to see him become enlightened and continue to make great albums. I hope someday we can all become one with the world and musically intune.

Highly recommended.
