"From the late sixties to the mid seventies, a bunch of good reggae music has been going out of the great Studio One. All sort of singers, musicians and producers work out their line of duty in that magic place. One of the recordings that came from there in 1973 was this superb Burning spear acetate. Studio One Presents The Burning Spear is one of the best reggae recordings ever made. Real reggae music directly from the cradle of reggae, performed by the best musicians of the island and wonderfully sung by one of the most mesmerizing voices of reggae: Winston Rodney."

"This definitely deserves consideration for the best Burning Spear album of all. True and direct, probably the most unpretentious hour of music you can ever hear. The LP version is not that hard to find and has superior mixing to the cd version."
