War ina Babylon

by: Max Romeo & the Upsetters

Release Date August 09, 2004
Like lots of Reggae/ Carribean Soul this album really strikes a chord when you are under the influence. The groove is somewhere between Church singer, Soul rebel hornplay and slow reggae drift groove to your average man in the street.
But then you listen to the album as a whole while really relaxed and you actually wonder how an album can be created that is so utterly timeless and even verging on futuristic! I believe this album was one of the first Reggae albums to use a drum machine and it augments the Dub styling and core Religious values along with the knowledge that Max Romeo was a down and dirty dub artist before and after.

Open the Iron Gate 1973-1977

by: Max Romeo

Release Date January 01, 2000
Earthier than 'War Ina Babylon' by virtue of escaping the Island Records' mastering/production gloss, Max Romeo's 'Revelation Time' (upon which this release is based) is a bonafide classic! The playing, production, songwritng and vocalising are top ranking! The Rasta/Socialist sentiment that ties the album together will touch any being born of this planet.

This record speaks about love, unity, equality and the struggle to achieve them... I can't think of a better subject for any music.

Pray for Me: the Best of Max Romeo 1967-1972

by: Max Romeo

Release Date August 21, 2000
This compilation covers the early period of Max Romeo's career prior to the recording of the seminal "War In A Babylon" masterpiece on Island for the great Lee Perry.

The album covers his early material with the Emotions, and the begining of his solo recordings, including the infamous "Wet Dream", which charted high in England despite receiving a radio ban.

The material ranges from the earlier poppier rock steady tracks, to the classic roots material he recorded in the early 70's with Scratch and Niney. Rock hard rhythm tracks allied to deep rasta lyrics lead to an intoxicating mix. I dare anyone not to appreciate tracks like "Public Enemy Number One" and "The coming of Jah".
