Not the ultimate Romeo collection by far, June 21, 2004
This review is from: Ultimate Collection (Audio CD)
I love Max Romeo but this isn't the best collection of his work. Sure there are a few classic tunes here that are wicked songs. But they miss out on a lot of other great track at the expense of some really obscure Romeo songs. Anyhow, that's why I got this CD - for the rare tracks, as I have all the others. But this CD doesn't even have We Dream - a rude boy classic that chugs along on a wicked rhythm.
So I hate to give Max a three stars - but there are much better comps out there. Get a collection of his early years "Pray For Me" or get the scortching "Open the Iron Gate".

Solid addition, September 6, 2008
This review is from: Ultimate Collection (Audio CD)
This is a good addition to any collection if you like reggae at all. One step forward, I chase the devil and Norman are highlights. Solid cd from front to back.

You can't disagree with Max Romeo., January 3, 2007
This review is from: Ultimate Collection (Audio CD)
It's hard to say just how good this collection is. It spans his full range from the selections that you'd put on to get the mood going, to the social statements, right through to the big smokin tunes. Buy it.
