    Did I just imagine it or was that Yabby You singing backup on They Never Love Poor Marcus?

  • Export Sticker Vinyl Find

    5 out of 5 stars
    paxd_kjetip27 October 2025United States🇺🇸

    I reckon there should be a later second pressing of this vinyl, similar to The Gladiators' Trenchtown Mix Up, but without that white label edge. I've just found a copy, and guess what? There's an export sticker on the back of the sleeve, hiding the cat number.

  • Rasta Reggae Must-Have

    3 out of 5 stars
    lrjeva16959 February 2025United States🇺🇸

    This is fantastic. Just as the title hints, it's all about Rasta themes, and I'd call this a must-have for Reggae fans. Sure, many of the top tracks are covers, but who wouldn't want Johnny Clarke to take on these songs? The production's top-notch, and the Aggrovators are at their finest here. What's there not to love?

  • Rasta Vibes Reggae Must-Have

    3 out of 5 stars
    shzevi537019 September 2024United States🇺🇸

    This is fantastic! Just as the title hints, it's all about Rasta vibes, and I'd say it's a must-have for any Reggae fan. Sure, most of the standout tracks are covers, but who better to redo them than Johnny Clarke? The production is top-notch, the Aggrovators are at their finest, what more could you ask for?
