Customer Reviews
great reggae.
already discovered the treasures of bob marley? already have "the harder they come" soundtrack? love burning spear and toots and the maytals? wondering where to turn now in the world of reggae? let me suggest this album. "handsworth revolution" is a reggae classic, brimming with soul, great rhthyms, creativity (there's even a spanish type guitar intro to the tune "prediction"), and warm passionate songs. a total winner.
Innovators of Reggae
In my mind, Handsworth Revolution is a riveting album. Songs such as Klu Klux Klan, Prodigal Son, are more than songs..they are a lyrical masterpiece. When the album first starts and you hear the bassline from Handsworth...just brings you into another world for a moment. I strongly recommend this album, Tribute to the Martyrs and also Aswad's Not Satisfied & Hulet if your into this "type" of reggae. The vocals sound more harmonic and almost in a chant like state at times. Makes the sound and it's message very impactful. Hope you enjoy.
Incredible, incredible music...
Wow... Peace and Love out there. And peace and love to eveybody who worked on this fine album. You can feel the love and peacefulness that was put into it. This beautiful record is like nectar. Steel Pulse' music soothes from the very first note. The openning few seconds are so masterfully played and recorded, that I smile every time the first track begins. I must recommend Handsworth Revolution to all. There are no weak tracks in the bunch. Smoothe and soulful singing and playing and deep, meaningful writing give each song weight, yet the music is light and sweet and comforting. And powerful, though subtle. Medicinal, even. Very healing and relaxing vibrations. This is a true classic work of reggae. (...And seriously, peace and love out there.)
