The B side is the only one worth playing

"In response to the guy before me...are you serious? This album stinks of modern technology. This definately is not Jimmy at his best. If you want what the last guy calls, "true reggae", go buy equal rights or mama africa by Peter Tosh, some Steel Pulse or Toots and the Maytals. The A side doesn't even sound like a reggae record. It sounds like something you would here on the station at the dentist office.This album's not all bad though. The lyrics are there, but the music is lacking. Like I said the B side is good. I would still buy the record for the last five songs, one of which is the classic cover of "Johnny Too Bad". I gave it 3 stars because only half of the songs are worth listening too, and even then, there are better songs and albums to listen to than this one. To each their own."
