I play this every morning to remind myself of the task at hand. The melodic sounds & harmonizing spirits will align you with your roots...next level vibrations, mi dun talk.
I was 9 years old when this record came out - my oldest sister who was 19 bought it - and it was one of the tunes that led me down the path of loving reggae music, it changed me forever. A few years later I bought the Johnny Clarke version with my own money and there was no going back…thousands of records and two sound systems later I am still buying new tunes in 2021. 50 years of musical joy.
First time I heard this song. I heard the beautiful souls that people of black origin are and need to exude these qualities above all and become vanguard's for the betterment of mankind and the Human condition.
There’s still musicians out there performing and recording these solid roots tracks. The problem is recording companies aren’t getting the messages they bring to the table.
The right song with whats going on in the world now. We are living in the last days. I'm glad my mother grew us up on meaningful music with meaningful powerful lyrics ❤️💛💚🔥🔥🔥
I make you right Sir Reggae music of this here calibre is not representative of the struggle But is rather the struggle itself Physically manifested Peace love and respect 🙌🏿
