Isaacs Record: Average Sound
3 out of 5 stars

The copy I got was all bent up, but my buddy with a record straightener fixed it up, and now it plays alright with no hissing. The sound quality ain't great, though; it's a bit quiet, kinda dull and washed out, missing punch and vibrancy. It's just an okay Gregory Isaacs record overall, but let's face it, even his average stuff is still alright.
