This is a great compilation of seventies roots from the Abraham / Clocktower group out of Ontario, Canada. There's 14 tracks total on this disc including cuts by Barrington Levy, Sammy Dread, Linval Thompson, and others. This disc keeps it going throughout by supplying a good mix of downbeat - classic roots - and chant style DJ. The highlights of this set are track #6 Rudy Say Him Bad (Wailing Soul), #10 Poor & Humble (Wayne Wade), and numbers #6 and #14 which are both dub tracks by Scientist. I don't really know if this disc has an official name or not - the front says "Various Artist" and then simply shows a few images of some our reggae favorites. I really didn't know that this disc was the highest of quality by it's appearance. Looks can be deceiving sometime.
