AMG EXPERT REVIEW: There was a time when harmony trios like
the Mighty Diamonds, Israel Vibration and Culture ruled the
airwaves and dancehalls of Jamaica. They typically delivered
more "truth and rights" songs than lover's pleas, and that
may be part of what led to their eventual displacement by
the earthier dancehall sounds that predominate today. But
many of them are still active, and Culture, led by the
charismatic singer Joseph Hill, remains quite productive.
Production Something unearths rare and previously unreleased
mixes of songs both familiar ("Trod On," "Too Long in
Slavery") and obscure ("Dog a Go Nyam Dog"). All are
presented in extended "disco mix" versions ù the normal
vocal mix of the song comes first, then segues without pause
into the dub version, sometimes with the addition of a
deejay voiceover. The result is a nine-track disc that lasts
almost 70 minutes, and it's 70 minutes of pure roots reggae
heaven. Culture's wailing, moaning harmonies recall Marcus
Garvey-era Burning Spear, and Errol Brown's production is
deep, dark and dread (though sometimes not careful enough of
the vocal sound, which is unpleasantly saturated on a couple
of tracks). Highly recommended. ù Rick Anderson
