Spreading Love one song at a time....

"What can I say?...I'm stunned..This Groundation CD is just Beautiful!! Groundation demonstrates perfect harmony...each beat, each word...A truly gifted band, representing what reggae is all about..love. When you listen to this, that is the only thing your head hears. Soulful lyrics sung beautifully by Harrison Stafford, sweet sweet music played by all the groundation players, combined with a few almost jazz-like jammin, to make one great thing...This is the kind of reggae all music lovers can enjoy. In this time of hatred and war, we need to hear the positive encouragment of love and peace... Groundation brings this message with their music, and hopefully we can all learn from it...
"People if I had only one more day, I'd live my life right, I would. I would find a way to love everyday, All people as I should."-Groundation"

"The debut recording album from groundation already takes reggae on another and much developed dimension, it's amazing how much inspiration can these guys have!
This album is enough to stoke anyone that's in reggae music and don't be surprised if all of a sudden groundation becomes your favorite band...
For me, the whole record is an highlight by itself, so i can't really point which songs i like the most...and it's just the beginning for them!
Welcome to the Nyabinghi Order

Best Tunes I Heard In Years !

"Man...I bought this CD at the beginning of the Summer just
because it had Ras Michael playing on it...I'd never heard
of these guys. But I haven't stopped playing it for 3 months
now...just amazing conscious lyrics with serious rootsy beats
and some of the most classic instrumental solos I ever heard.
This one will be in my top 10 For-I-Va !Best tracks (although they are all good!) - Waterfall, Weak
Heart, and my absolute number one favorite tune of the
millenium - Nyabinghi Order...."no weak heart can enter..."
Yes-I !"
