DUBROOM MP3 REVIEW
WWW, December 2008 - This historical recording gives us Winston Rodney and his Burning Band performing in Jamaica during the time of his album "Resistance".
A Burning Spear performance is an experience. It has been so for decades, now. Take this concert: it brings us back to 1986, when Rub a Dub was hot and digital devices entered in the studio... and on stage.
Burning Spear has always done his own thing while around him all these things were happening and developing. Sticking to his own form of Roots Reggae, also in the times of Yellowman and Barrington Levy.
No difference here, either.
The concert gets hotter and hotter, better and better. Just like the recording, that is. Listen through the first 15-20 minutes and hear the quality improve.
Another piece of Reggae Niceness fe true!
Brother I don't usually post comments but I have to say thank you for providing the download of Burning Spear @ Sunsplash 9. IMHO he is the best. Thanks again. Ali
ReplyDeleteHard for me to believe but 24 years ago my younger brother & I were standing in Jarrett Park listening to the Spear that August Night. Cannot believe the clarity of the recording & the memories for me! Bill "Not Guilty Posse."
ReplyDeleteI too was at that Sunsplash, having travelled all the way from New Zealand. I was backstage watching Spear warming up before he went on. The show just nailed me to the ground. Timeless, passionate roots music. Spear had recently resmued touring after a long layoff, and had found new energy. It's all here. Wonderful memories. Feel it in a one drop,
