Yeah I don't have this and I've only heard the Minott, Levy, Andy and Nitty Gritty tracks that I can recall. Looks great though.

this one also has the cover of the comp I'm listening to which by the way is A TOTALLY SWEET COMP.

Alex I thought you might enjoy this! it is really pretty wonderful

the evil genius of Zaiger Genetics (J0hn D.), Friday, 7 August 2009 20:28 (sixteen years ago)

"Jah Black" is awseome IIRC.

Alex in SF, Friday, 7 August 2009 20:28 (sixteen years ago)

Yeah there is some overlap with this:

http://www.roots-archives.com/release/3607/?highlight=46598

which is completely fucking amazing (Ernie B's had it on sale for like $5). There was also a second volume which isn't on Roots-Archives which was just as good.

Alex in SF, Friday, 7 August 2009 20:30 (sixteen years ago)

this is a different mix from the mix on the comp. still a super hot track no matter how you mix it tho

I predict this will be one of the all-time-low polls for turnout btw

the evil genius of Zaiger Genetics (J0hn D.), Saturday, 8 August 2009 13:41 (sixteen years ago)

I'll vote twice.

Still voting "Jah Black" though. Although I suspect that Tenor Saw track is probably great.

it's like i have a couple worked up orc dicks under my arms (Alex in SF), Wednesday, 12 August 2009 23:12 (sixteen years ago)

do you have links off? I have the tenor saw track via youtube linked upthread!

Man Is Nairf! (J0hn D.), Thursday, 13 August 2009 02:53 (sixteen years ago)

Digging the Barry Brown, but voting Lloyd Hemmings as I'm in a stalag riddim kind of mood.

a passing spacecadet, Thursday, 13 August 2009 22:32 (sixteen years ago)

I didn't notice it! Here is the Barrington Levy track I voted for:
