5.0 out of 5 starsIf you need convincing of life in Reggae beyond Marley...
By F.N. Wright on April 19, 2001
Format: Audio CD Verified Purchase
This music has the power to heal and change your life for the better! So righteous and beautiful I just can't get enough. I own well over 200 Reggae CDs and this one is now at the top of my list -- it has been growing on me exponentially since I got it. This is definitely music which requires repeated listenings for maximum enjoyment. Some of the best vocal harmonies in the history of Reggae, with fat grooves to match. Very hymn-like and churchical, with many outstanding dubs by King Tubby. Almost all the tracks were recorded at Scratch's Black Ark and voiced at Tubby's, with toasts from Big Youth, Trinity and Tappa Zukie. Also featuring a young Michael Rose on one track. The players are all top studio men, including Family Man, Sly Dunbar, Horsemouth Wallace, Chinna and many more. The liner notes are great with interviews and photos. All around one of the best examples of pure, righteous, Jamaican Reggae in existence. It will put joy in your heart and have you singing and bouncing all day long.

5.0 out of 5 starsOne of my favorite records, period.
By andreas__21 on April 6, 2006
Format: Audio CD Verified Purchase
I noticed there has been no 5-star praise for this album since 2005, so I want to add mine for 2006: I listen to this Double CD since 1998 - it is increadibly beautiful and never gets boring. I disagree with the reviewer who said this record is one that has to grow on you - I loved it the first time I heard it and I still do. I have bought this CD set since '98, gave it away to friends for birthdays and such, bought it again, and so forth. This album is easily among my top ten, not only for reggae. If you appreciate albums that have not a single lame song in them and that have timeless quality and are incredibly stunning works of art such as Talking Timbuktu by Ry Cooder and Ali Farka Toure, Rocking Time by Burning Spear, Welcome to Sky Valley by Kyuss or Clandestino by Manu Chao, you will love Jesus Dread.

5.0 out of 5 starsThe Ultimate Roots experience
By Trevor on May 4, 2005
Format: Audio CD
Dark, haunting, uplifting, beautiful, conflicting....all these words apply to Yabby You's music. This box set is possibly the greatest release by the great Blood and Fire label. I have been listening to this release for years, and still find myself putting it on again and again. You get many different versions of the same song, but it is feels far from repetitive, instead you feel like you are getting closer and closer to the truth.

5.0 out of 5 starsAbsolutely necessary double CD
By A Customer on December 28, 2000
Format: Audio CD
Because of the world's love affair with Bob Marley (one of the greatest artists of the 20th century, don't get me wrong) many reggae artists of the 70's get overlooked, and this is too bad, because Bob is but the tip of the iceberg! One of those overlooked despite being possessed of pure GENIUS is Yabby U. Yabby's message, riddims, and harmonies are divinely beautiful, and there is not a slow minute on this pack of originals, dubs, overdubs, toasts, and versions. Yabby U says he started singing because of divine inspiration; given what he's created, I don't know who can argue that he wasn't. --On a side note, in addition to the amazing tracks that will be in store for you on this, the liner notes are among the best I've ever read...just a thought. Prepare yourself for the power of Yabby U as he chants it down.

5.0 out of 5 starsRoots master finally gets his due
By A Customer on February 15, 1999
Format: Audio CD
Yabby You is the most criminally overlooked artist in reggae. In many ways his work is similar to Lee Perry's in that he is a band leader singer and producer of vast vission and daring. This disc compiles vintage singles and dub mixes as well as classic toats by the like of Big Youth and Trinity. The rare two disc set that only suffers for not being longer.

5.0 out of 5 starsBlood and Fire Do it Again
By A Customer on January 29, 2002
Format: Audio CD
The Blood and Fire label is known as the reggae reissue label between the sound quality and selection you can't go wrong with anything on this label. This Yabby U LP is tied as my favorite Blood and Fire LP with Children of Jah. You want this LP.

5.0 out of 5 starsAwesome roots and dub package
By Dm Otis on May 1, 2007
Format: Audio CD
I just got this and boy is it a heavy document of reggae music. Despite his relative invisibility, Yabby You is one of the biggest creative forces in Jamaican music. Its undeniable once you hear his music.

I also wanted to add that this issue is packaged like a box set and includes a deluxe stapled booklet that is quite weighty and informative. So if the CD seems a little expensive, that is a factor. But it is more that worth it.
