CD Reviews

All You Need

Michael Heumann | El Centro, CA USA | 02/25/2003

(5 out of 5 stars)

"The Ethiopians are a wonderful vocal band that recorded during Reggae's golden age (mid-60s to mid-70s). Their music is a joyous experience. This compilation has just about every single track you'll ever likely need from one of the truly essential groups in reggae."

Some of the best!

rocksteady | Seattle, WA USA | 10/14/2004

(5 out of 5 stars)

"The Ethiopians' recordings from the mid 60s up thru the early 70s represent all that is great about Jamaican music from this period. Strong lyrics, great vocal harmonies, and great tracks from WIRL studios and producers such as J.J. Johnson and Sonia Pottinger combine to make this a definitive collection of the Ethiopians's best work. Due to licensing rights, there are no Studio One tracks here but it hardly matters, this is some of the most enjoyable rocksteady and early reggae ever."

This is as joyful as it gets!
