Congo Ashanti" was the 1st lp the trio did after leaving Lee
"Scratch" Perry's Blark Ark label after disputes over
royalties and poor circulation of their now classic "Heart
of the Congos" lp (a very common, sad tale in the music
industry).
Columbia records snatched the trio up and from it came this
lp. While it has nice moments, it has a very glossy, slick
feel about it that is common to big label releases in any
genre, and thus lost part of its credibility in the reggae
community.
Regardless, there was little way the band without Perry's
studio guidance could have come close to matching the power
of their prior effort- and Perry mused that even with his
help there was little chance...he knew that "Heart of the
Congos" was magic.
I like many of the songs on here despite having to get over
the studio dumbfoolery of over-compression and the like to
make their songs ready for the radio. While I should give
this review fewer than 3 stars, i can not do so based on my
love of this trio, and respect for what they tried to
accomplish under horrific odds.
This lp is for the more rabid fan.
This is The REMASTERED-EXPANDED Version Coming Out Soon ..
