Gregory Isaacs & Max Romeo on Vinyl Vinyl Vinyl Vinyl from Gregory Isaacs & Max Romeo is available for home delivery with Vinyl Records London, only £20.99 +P&P The tracks on this latest Global Beats showcase album, produced by Mafia amp Fluxy, have been chosen for their relevance and enduring ability to liven up any roots session. They re timeless, but then we re talking about profound message songs vocal performances steeped in authenticity, and deep, heavy rhythms that effortlessly blur any distinctions between reggae s old and new schools. The full force of such regal backdrops can be heard at its best in the dub mixes that accompany each track, making this album even more irresistible to selectors and serious collectors alike. In terms of character, lifestyle and demeanour, there was a world of difference between these two Jamaican reggae legends. Gregory Isaacs s arsenal of tender love songs, coupled with impeccable dress sense, earned him a fervent female following but there was darker side to the Cool Ruler s talents, as featured here. Down The Line is about police harassment and Wah Dee a convict s lament, whilst Motherless Children, which he first voiced for Sly amp Robbie, is a stark and chilling account of the inequality that continues to divide us. Max Romeo is strictly lowkey by comparison but he has the same gift, and is no less outspoken when it comes to speaking truth to power. He s a graduate of Lee Scratch Perry s Black Ark whose breakthrough hit was a bawdy ditty banned by the BBC, and nothing at all like the insightful roots songs and social commentaries that later came to define him. He s advocating repatriation to Africa on The More The Merrier and No Peace, whilst Reverend is a scathing attack on organised religion, and voiced over another of Mafia amp Fluxy s thunderous rhythms.
