Respect & Manners Mixtape 2013
Conscious selection of new roots songs and excursions on some rocking
rhythms, old and new. Call for unity and better overstanding everywhere
in this time. In the words of Jah Mali, ''live and let live''
Starring three classic Burning Spear rhythms; He Prayed (Sajay), Creation Rebel (Maximum Sound) & Live Good (Mafia & Fluxy). The Ffrenchie relick of the Creation Rebel
(2008) is based on Bunny Lee's mid-70s version (Johnny Clarke) and
features a cool Johnny Clarke/Fantan Mojah combination and a crucial
U-Roy/Chedidek cut as well as an original Bunny Lee dub version.
Next Generation Family's rootsy Raspect riddim is just brilliant and leads with Lutan Fyah's superb Respect & Manners. Another I-light is Reggaeland's Cultura featuring deejay legend Jah Thomas and Singer Jah's Prayer 2 Di Most High which is simply sublime. The Redeemer (OneNess) harks back to the good ole days of rub-a-dub dances with Mark Wonder. Jesse Royal delivers a militant cut to the I'klek'tic (XTM Nation). Great to hear Queen Omega once more. She really shines on the Passover (Jahlight). Another Maximum Sound rhythm, Leggo Di,
has a real early reggae sound. Deejay Captain Sinbad celebrates Jamaica
50 here while singer-deejay Ras Demo (aka Demolition Man) come with a
top reality tune. Glen Washington & Mikey Spice contribute two
outstanding conscious songs on Cyclone's Da Drama. Joe Frasier's World Peace is similar to the Full Up
and features one of Sanchez's best cultural songs. Together, taken from
the latest Ras Batch LP Know Thyself, is an illustrious call for unity.
A heartical U-Roy combination with Harrison Stafford (of Groundation)
reminds me of vintage Eric Donaldson and is from the new U-Roy LP Pray
Fi Di People
Continuous mix. 119 minutes.
