Deeper Knowledge Records (DKR) has been repressing rare reggae LPs and tons of 45s for a few years now. This is a gem of a release since it is a slice of reggae music circa late 70s, which is about the time I first started seriously listening and collecting reggae music. I have never seen this record before but I would have definitely added this to my collection if it had been available since it is exactly the sound that attracted me to the music in the first place. The backing band is top notch with most of the musicians associated with the 12 Tribes of Israel - a form of Rastafari (e.g. Pablove Black, Bagga Walker, etc). All in all, a must have for any serious fan of reggae music.
Check out this 12" version of a song from the album Crab In A Burrell - In addition, here is a rare video of Still Cool doing another song from the album To Be Poor Is A Crime
Crucial!
