5.0 out of 5 stars Superb!!!!!!!, October 12, 2005

This review is from: Trojan Roots & Culture Box Set (Audio CD)

Reggae was originally marketed as one shot singles to a listening public that craved the latest and favest sounds coming out of the dancehalls and chicken shack studios of Trenchtown. This is a collection of the best from the mid '70's. If you love roots rock reggae and dub masterpieces, before all the cliches were in place,this is where you come. For my money, it gets no finer than this.

sweet like gourmet chocolate.this box set is so good i play it every day.

usually there are at least a dozen not so hot cuts in these trojan box sets.sometimes just one or two.roots and culture bats one thousand in my opinion.others may disagree.whatever the case may be,be assured you will be getting a primo compilation of roots classics with,"don't you cut off your dreadlocks",throwing out the first pitch.a real stinger of a fastball!the pace never lets up.just when you think it can't possibly get

any better,it does,and in a big way.disc one is so good that if the other two were stinkers the set would still be well worth the price.so if i were you(and i'm glad i'm not)i'd lay my money down quick.satisfaction guaranteed.this set would make someone a fine christmas gift.i've got mine

now get yours!
