Product Description & Reviews

Live At Montreux Jazz Festival 2001 by Burning SpearThis product is manufactured on demand using CD-R recordable media. Amazon.com's standard return policy will apply. Winston Rodney, a.k.a. Burning Spear, has been making highly political and personal reggae music since the early 1970s. Noted as one of the very first artists to make overtly Rastafarian/Marcus Garvey-centric music, Rodney is an elder statesman of the music. This live album starts with one of his earliest hits, "Pick Up the Pieces," and the rock-steady rhythms and lovingly punctuated horn riffs are remarkably fresh. Likewise, the two tunes from Burning Spear's breakthrough 1975 album, Marcus Garvey--"Old Marcus" and "Slavery Days"--are as magnificently intense and uplifting as ever. The only drawbacks are an occasional '80s-cheesy keyboard run and a few too many rock guitar licks. A spoken-word cover of "Oh Happy Day" reveals one of the music's unspoken influences, gospel music, while the majority of the disc rarely strays from a levitational, tranced-out, riff-heavy mix of flawlessly executed reggae and dub. --Mike McGonigal
