Heart of the Congos

by: Congos

Release Date July 14, 2006
I bought this hoping it had some different mixes of the Congos best album, but it seems to have been mastered at a slightly faster speed than the edition on Blood & Fire [which has more & longer tracks]. VP should pay attention to details like that if they want to match the other B&F edition [which also has bonbus tracks included]

Philosophy and Underwear

by: Kid Congo

Release Date October 10, 2005
Kid Congo, once a memeber of proto-punks THE GUN CLUB and a close confidante of Nick cave for many years, has certainly come into his own with the Pink Monkey Birds. This is a wonderful record, one that demonstrates not just his versatility(check out his electronica project Kid and Khan)but his complete and utter genius.

Congo Ashanti

CD-Charts > Music > Congos- The
by: The Congos

Release Date November 03, 2003
Heart of congos is the congos album that is often spoken about as being a classic or a reggae masterpiece, this album is in my opinion however much better, its quality songs, slick production beautiful harmonies with lyrics and melodies that will get hooked in your mind for days after you listened to it. The sheer slickness of the production is what makes this so enjoyable. I think people just entering the world of reggae and hardcore reggae heads alike will enjoy this.

Fisherman Style

CD-Charts > Music > Congos- The
by: Congos & Friends

Release Date April 24, 2006
On The Congos & Friends "Fisherman Style" double-disc release, many veteran & current reggae artists lend their particular take on the Congos' "Fisherman" tune (from the Lee Perry-produced classic HEART OF THE CONGOS, circa 1977).

The result is an album's worth of many artists singing or deejaying over this track. The album is probably best digested when the listener bites off a little at a time - sitting through this 24-track album in one listen could prove a bit overkill, even for diehard Congos fans.

With that in mind, this Blood & Fire release showcases many fine artists, ranging from the great Max Romeo to the great Big Youth to the great Horace Andy, and so on...you get the idea!!
