A great album.
The song choice is suburb and the interpretations are fantastic.
Although there is a drum machine sound it is easily overshadowed
by the arrangements and Dean's sax.
With songs such as "So JAH Seh" how can you go wrong ??.
A little mandolin on "Lick Samba" is definitely a nice addition.
Dean is a legend who is perfect for an album like this and his
follow up Vol 2. Both Volumes are well worth the effort to find them.
the album tracklist is the following (song/artist/time) :
01 - africa unite 4:22
02 - so jah seh 4:54
03 - turn you lights down low 4:56
04 - the heathen 4:25
05 - pimpers paradise 4:15
06 - im hurting inside 5:21
07 - crazy baldhead 4:56
08 - lick samba 3:21
09 - is this love 4:09
10 - small axe 4:28
11 - don't rock my boat 4:07
