CD Reviews

Solid As a Rock?

Gary Selikow | Great Kush | 05/08/2004

(5 out of 5 stars)

"OK this is definitely the best reggae compilation album. As far as I am concerned Jimmy Cliff is better than Bob Marley.
And this CD contains Jimmy Cliff's very best work.
When I was twelve years old, in 1984, I got hold of this exquisite Jimmy Cliff album called House of Exile (1974) , and since then the tape has been worn. I have since then, been unable to get another copy of House of Exile, but now I have found this fantastic album which has 5 incredible from House of Exile, as well as many other fantastic Jimmy Cliff hits.
The lively upbeat `Solid As a Rock', `Music Maker', the contemplative `House of Exile', the exquisite gospel piece, `I Want To Know' as well as songs from the late 60's like `Wonderful World, Beautiful People', `Suffering in the Land' and `Many Rivers to Cross'.
This is indeed a masterpiece. Let it be your first Cliff album, indeed your first reggae album."

Good collection

Sean M. Kelly | Portland, Oregon United States | 09/20/2000

(4 out of 5 stars)

"This cd, while not earthshattering, is a good collection of the more essential Cliff recordings. It represents Cliff's most productive early-mid 70's period nicely, and certainly shows why Cliff is the reggae master for the ages. A tad overpriced, and I personally feel you can get much better, but still a nice collection all in all."

Jimmy Cliff at his best.

"This compilation of Jimmy's music is simply the bomb!!Listen to House of exile through fundamental regggae and conclude why this man is the maestro.He interweaves true life situation and passion on this set.Simply the best."
