▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄ Release Notes ▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄
This release is the 1973 album Funky Kingston released on cd
in 1990 not the ToXiCMP3 release which was a compliation of 8
songs that should have read Funky Kingston (1968-1975) and
should have been dated 2001 instead of 1990.
Bob Marley may have been the man who took reggae to the
international audience and became Jamaica's greatest musical
star, but it was Toots Hibbert who gave reggae music its name
(so what if he spelled it "reggay"), and he led one of the
tightest and most soulful bands the music has ever known.
Even more important, Toots has a voice that's nothing short
of a force of nature, radiating passion, conviction, and pure
joy on even the most banal material (if you never believed
that John Denver's "Take Me Home, Country Roads" could be
soulful, listen to Toots' version of it and prepare to be
amazed). In their prime, Toots & the Maytals may well have
been reggae's greatest act (at the very least they're in the
top ten), and the intense, soulful groove of their finest
performances is nothing short of awe-inspiring. Funky
Kingston is arguably their best album, featuring a handful of
the band's best (and best-known) songs (including "Pomp and
Pride," "Time Tough," and the still astounding "Pressure
Drop") and a cover of "Louie Louie" that must be heard to be
believed. Tough, vital music that contains some of the most
powerful, hypnotic grooves ever committed to tape; if you
think reggae is all aimless ganja-fueled noodling, you really
need to hear this. Mark Deming
