CD Reviews

Good newer release

(4 out of 5 stars)

"For anyone looking to buy their first Scratch album, I wouldn't recomend this one, get Roast Fish & Cornbread, the Upsetters' Super Ape, or any of the generic hits compilations. However, for fans who know the majority of his work, I have no trouble recomending this album. It's most similar to Jamaican ET, using the same band with the Naylor Twins on backup vocals. Scratch still uses layered vocal tracks most of the time, but the songs are often driven by the backup singers. I enjoy this album more than Jamaican ET because the songs are more memorable, and the arrangements more varied. By far my favorite song on the record is 'On The Street again', but after a few times the Smokey Robinson/Temptations cover of 'My Girl' is a lot of fun too."
