Another HOT Release from aAF!
Life is For Living represented the first fruits of
Horace Andy's collaboration with reggae
traditionalist/futurist Neil "Mad Professor" Fraser.
Having recorded for the top producers of reggae's first
(Clement Dodd) and second (Keith Hudson, Bunny Lee)
generations, Andy's selection of the Ariwa record owner
for this 1995 set seemed a logical step. The singer's
contributions to Massive Attack's critically acclaimed
Blue Lines and its underrated follow-up Protection seem
to have given him the confidence to produce his finest
set of all-original material in some time. As usual, the
singer's highly distinctive, aching vocal style is well
suited to the sort of pained meditations on death, love,
faith, and the harshness of daily living found here. The
opening title track finds him stretching out in a
discomix style past the seven-minute mark. Though the
track is most notable for Mad Professor's mixing work
rather than the subdued vocal, the singer hits his
stride three tracks in. "Must Be Jah" finds him in top
form again, milking the lyric in classic Andy style.
"Zion I" and "Dem a Fraud" with their traditional,
nyahbingi flavored rhythms represent new territory for
the singer. Andy closes the former with a spoken word
coda while Mad Professor brings the dub elements of the
latter to the forefront on the satisfying version
excursion "Dub is Bad." Though the material hardly
surpasses the singer's classic In the Light, which was
re-issued by Blood and Fire the same year, Life is For
Living is a solid set with many of the same merits
