I've made a rather modest attempt to explore the musical roots of reggae just recently. After overplaying Bob Marley to death, I thought it time to move onto something different. Enter Johnny Clarke. Another Kingston native, Clarke has a surprisingly gentle singing voice, something that I haven't really found with other artists of the same genre.
I haven't branched out to listening to some of his records from the 70's just yet. From what I hear they do not manage to capture the magic of this album. ENJOY!
