Red [VINYL]

Search: Puff She Puff
by: Black Uhuru

Release Date October 17, 1990
After the stunning artistic and commercial success of "Sinsemillia", going back into the studio with the same band a few months later was hardly going to produce poor results. Unfortunately, having torn up the rule book with their last LP, they presented us with more of the same. "Youth of Eglington", "Utterance" and "Sponji Reggae" can still bring a smile the faces of all but the most terminally miserable, and there are some wonderful backing tracks on here, with Sly and Robbie stretching themselves due to having freedom to experiment, but it really is little more than "Sinsemillia Part 2", so only four stars, sorry

Party In Session - The Black Uhuru Collection

Search: Puff She Puff
by: Black Uhuru

Release Date April 30, 2007
Unavoidabily this new twofer of Black Uhuru has to be compared to the Liberation compilation. This Party in session has 4 tracks more and, crucially, has 5 dub sides from their 1983 Dub factor album (on cd 2)not featured on Liberation.
This gives us the chance to hear both the vocal hits and some of their dub counterparts, which feature more than usually the high voices of Puma Jones and Michael Rose. Sly and Robbie hit a top in their career with these dub sides. The absence of Push push has to be regretted (as on Liberation). Black Uhuru hereby has a second testimony to their 1980-83 heyday and confirms itself as one the absolute top-5 artists in reggae.

Liberation: The Island Anthology

Search: Puff She Puff
by: Black Uhuru

Release Date February 02, 1994
Double CD with 28 tracks not in chronological order. The 1980 -1985 line up of Michael Rose, Duckie Simpson, and Puma from the Island Records albums. Of course the vital rhythm section of Sly Dunbar on drums and Robbie Shakespeare helped to make Black Uhuru so important in reggae music, their hard-hitting beats combined so well with superb expressive vocals of Michael Rose, complimented by the haunting harmonies of Puma and Duckie. `The World is Africa', `Sinsimelia', Bull in the Pen', `What is Life?' ,Happiness`, 'Guess who's Coming to Dinner', are still crucial cuts some twenty five years. The live version of ` Shine Eye Gal' is not so chilling as the original studio version , but is still excellent. `Chill Out' is superb, reggae veering ... Read More:
