Marcus Garvey/Garvey's Ghost

by: Burning Spear

Release Date November 27, 1990
Probably the best album I own of any genre! It's actually two albums: Marcus Garvey, and Garvey's Ghost, which is a dub remix of Marcus Garvey. It's so good, I can't really think of anything else to say: words don't do it justice!

Sounds From The Burning Spear: Burning Spear At Studio One

by: Burning Spear

Release Date October 25, 2004
This collection of early Burning Spear tracks produced at the legendary studio one studios is simply the best compilation cd ever made. Not the most commercial reggae but if you only have one ounce of soul in you, you will not fail to love this. In the sleeve it states "If you are listening to this for the first time I envy you". A truer word was never written. This cd is simply brilliant, it makes you smile, it makes you feel, it makes you dream. What a Gem!!! A must for everyone even if your not a massive reggae fan. If you are and haven't got this I ask why? Buy it now!!!!

Hail Him

by: Burning Spear

Release Date July 08, 2002
I'm not the best person to write interesting, factually correct and animated reviews but I do know good music when I hear it. If you are a fan of smooth, soulful, heartfelt reggae then this is a must for you. Great tunes, inspiring lyrics and thumping rhythms - you don't get much better than this.

If you like reggae and have not ventured much further than Bob Marley then try some Burning Spear. Albums such as: "Social Living", "Farover", "100th Anniversary: Marcus Garvey + Garvey's Ghost " and "Hail H.I.M." are some of his best works.

I've just ordered more burning spear for my collection and wanted to spread the word on this living legend.

Chant Down Babylon: The Island Anthology

by: Burning Spear

Release Date July 29, 1996
"Chant Down Babylon" is the biggest and best Winston Rodney, AKA Burning Spear, collection ever which charts all of his finest work under the famous Island record label. Spear is a serious artist who's music is deep and soulfull, which this collection shows.
It has to be said though that to me the 1st CD here is streets ahead of the second. Although the second would be classed as an extremely good Reggae album, Burning Spears pre-1980 recordings on the first disc are what makes him a reggae legend. Songs such as "Marcus Garvey", "Black Soul", "Black Wa-da-da" and "Door Peep" define Spear's unique style of roots reggae. "The Sun" also shines due to it's poppier melody while the disc finishes brilliantly with two great live songs.
