good
This is a great compilation. Disc 1 is early reggae (1970-1974), mostly instrumentals, pretty rare tracks too. Stand out tracks are 'Kaya' by Bob Marley (produced by Lee Perry) and 'Half Ounce' by Big Youth, which is a dub of the rockfort rock rhythm.
Disc 2 is 1975-1978, the roots era, Horace Andy's take on Cornell Campbell's 'Gorgon' plus the dub, 'The Reggae Crusaders' doing a version of Flabba Holt's African Train riddim (very cool) plus the dub, 'Bushweed Corn Trash' plus dub, three versions of the Rupie Edwards 'Irie Feelings' rhythm, 4 versions of Linval Thompson's 'I Like To Smoke Marihuana' and more solid roots efforts by Johnny Clarke, Joe White, Tappa Zukie & Cornell Campbell. 'Ashanti Ganja Dub' is an extended dub work out of that old soul song 'Stand By Me'.
Disc 3: 1977-1985, beginning to sound more like dancehall, with mostly The Revolutionaries and the Roots Radics playing as backing band. A lot of cool dub tunes here, Horace Andy's 'Collie Weed' is on the 'I Need A Roof' rhythm, 'Herb' by the Revolutionaries is the 'Scorcher' rhythm, 'Collie Weed' by Barrington Levy = 'My Conversation'; 'Scientist Ganja Dub'= African Beat, 'Cannabis Dub' = heavenless (very hypnotic), 'Sensi For Sale' by the Tufftones is a somewhat dated but still enjoyable take on the 'Sleng Teng' and the only digital tune on this great compilation.

laid back
this cd is good for background music. the beats are simple and soothing. some of the songs have some singing over it. everyone song is about smoking. it's just a good laid back cd, a good cd to listen when your hanging out. i actually enjoy it.
