There is a definite progression to be heard as the tracks draw from the original eight lps in the series.
Reggae is still a relatively new concept in the first tracks, having just taken over from the slower rock-steady style in the early sixties. So the first few numbers are very R&B-like. Half way through the first disc the familiar bass thump is there & you know you're not in Kansas anymore.
I am a big fan of unlikely Reggae covers & there are some gems here. The theme from Shaft had me grinning from ear to ear. Bridge Over Troubled Water is pretty good as well.
Tighten Up is a real floor filler & a total mood lifter. You owe it to yourself to imbibe.
