4.0 out of 5 stars top-notch reggae, November 6, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: Wicked Dem a Burn: Best of (Audio CD)

His distinctive vocal style - a powerful and unusually high tenor - set him apart from the second generation of reggae singers who followed folks like Ken Boothe, John Holt and Delroy Wilson on the Jamaican scene. But it wasn't until he reappeared with Massive Attack and won over a new generation that genuine interest was triggered in his back catalogue. Great news, considering the wealth of top-notch recordings he made throughout the `70s and `80s. If you're looking for an introduction, Wicked Dem Burn will do the trick, with a `70s hit-heavy repast (Skylarking, Love of a Woman, Zion Gate, Rain From the Sky, True Love Shines Bright) of quavery, groove-based dub/reggae all voiced with Andy's impeccable phrasing. Good old-fashioned reggae.
