5.0 out of 5 stars So well done., September 15, 2006
By Hudson G TANNIS "DR.GROOVE" (LAURELTON, NEW YORK United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Iam actually surprise at the lack of reviews on this another masterpiece from the one and only Monty Alexander.The music is conservative and stays true to the original spirit but with a new flavour and style.Great artist,great musicians,excellent song selections and we have another masterpiece...highly recommended.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good stuff!!, November 22, 2008
By D. Grell (Tampa, FL) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I heard this compilation at a friend's house a few weeks before and decided that I had to have it. This is not my first Monty Alexander compilation, so again I'm not disappointed. A collector's item indeed!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars I never knew...., May 16, 2007
I never knew a whole lot about Monty Alexander other than he's played with Sinatra and Dizzy and the bunch. But this album....well, after hearing it on HD TV, I was actually late for work because I had to go order it immediately. Great versions of Marley songs which are always simple and pleasant to the ears. Especially the version of "forever lovin' Jah." Highly recommended.
