5.0 out of 5 stars the best album since 1989, March 1, 2004

By	Andre Achkar - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

ok let's put it this way : i couldn't beleive that ub40 still can make something to surprise me , especially after their ­­" cover up " album which i qualify of horrible . ( i am a huge fan and i have all their albums ) .BUT " homegrown " is absolutely my favorite now since at least 1989 when labour 2 came out . the melodies on this album are amazing and ali's voice is better than ever and most of all , the production including the mixing and the sound quality , is excellent . i have the french version on which you can find a 2nd version of "young guns " with alpha blondy ( an ivorian reggae singer ), a version not included in the uk version . so guys don't wait , ORDER THIS CD NOW .
