"This album does not have a bad track on it. Peter Tosh's greatest album is Equal Rights, but this is more accessible to new reggae fans or even new Tosh fans. It is a lot of fun because of the duet with Mick Jagger, which opens the album. The rest of the album is excellent, especially the song Bush Doctor, and the extra tracks are a fine addition. It also has the coolest Peter Tosh sleeve (along with Legalize It!) If you want to check out Tosh, this is an excellent place to start!!!

If you're a Tosh fan and you don't have this, what are you waiting for??"

The great peter`s classic in a new form

"When peter tosh signed to rolling stones records he was well aware of its significance in the world of international music. The duet with Mick jager on You`ve gotta walk (dont look back)gave the album an instant hit. The album is a mixed material of old wailers music and new songs, backed by the fabulous rythm twins "Sly & Robbie".Maybe the most interesting song of this new packaging is the unrelesed version of "Lessons in my life", with a laid-back Tosh on vocals, the song was later released on his "No nuclear war" album. The dub mixes are interesting and "sly and Robbie" supremacy on the rythm section is quite solid and innovative. Highly recommended"

Pick Myself Up !

"This album is an interesting mix of political protest, religious soul and love songs.



The most memorable song for me is `Moses- The Prophets'

Filled with the most incredible spiritual imagery, I can never forget the powerful words:



"Do you remember Moses

Do you remember Moses

Him no ded

Him no ded

I se Him no ded

De man depon earth still

De man a trod earth still

De man depon earth still

Watchin all de wicked, dem a gone."



"Creation" is another powerful spiritual hymn.



There is the "(You Gotta Walk) Don't Look Back" , a fabulous duet with Peter Tosh and Mick Jagger. The plea to legalize marijuana in "Bush Doctor", and even love songs like `Soon Come' carry Tosh's tough edge.

Another inspiring poetic song is `Pick Myself Up'-one of the best self-help songs up there.



A definite must have in a complete reggae collection."
