Free Music Review: A lot of fun
Hit: 5 Stars
I had this LP years ago, and loved it. Now without a turntable, I was so happy to find it re-released as a disc. It is very different, and a lot of fun to listen to. Real toe-tappers. A good one to play while cleaning the house....full of energy.
The Harder They Come Poster
Jamaican filmmaker Perry Henzell made reggae an integral player in his gritty 1973 saga of a renegade Kingston singer who becomes a modern Robin Hood, casting one of the style's earliest stars, Jimmy Cliff, in the lead, and filling this soundtrack--here presented in a remastered version--with classics from Toots & the Maytals ("Pressure Drop," "Sweet and Dandy"), Desmond Dekker ("Shanty Town"), the Melodians ("Rivers of Babylon"), and the Slickers ("Johnny Too Bad"). Cliff himself gets pole position, however, getting in the first ("You Can Get It If You Really Want") and last ("The Harder They Come") words in this first-rate reggae primer, which also features Cliff's enduring "Many Rivers to Cross." --Sam SutherlandInternational Music CDs
