Re: 5 songs that have blown your mind

The reactions to Fabroots topic (3 favorite roots albums) shown that it's almost impossible to put a hierarchy in our music. So I just suggest to make a little selection of 5 songs (classical or rare, we don't care) that you have listened in the repeat mode for days, you know, a few ones that really reached you deep..

- Free black man (B. Spear)
- Hurt not the earth (Little Roy)
- Head corner stone (W. McAnuff)
- Save us Jah (Vernon Buckley)
- Deliver me from my enemies (Yabby You)

-Igzabhier(Let Jah be Praised) Peter Tosh
-African Daughter Big Youth
-Economical Crises Yabby You
-Originator U Roy
-Marcus Children Suffer Burning Spear

-Concious Man (Jolly Brothers/Perry)
-Soldier and Police War (Jah Lion)
-Cool Rasta (Heptones)
-African Race (Abbyssinians)
-Tan and See (Max Romeo)

- No Wicked Shall Enter The Kingdom Of Zion - Barry Brown
- declarations of rights by don carlos
- one step forward - max romeo
- be thankful - bunny clarke
- forever loving jah (made me love reggae music! )

Nice topic !

-Anthony"Sangie"Davis & lee Perry "Words"
-The Velvet Shadows "Wailing of black people"
-Ken Boothe "Black, gold & green"
-Devon Morris "Su su pon rasta"
-Judah Eskender Tafari "Jah light"(first version)

After 1 hour... Its more hard again that 3 albums for me! loool

-Meditation dub (Augutus Pablo)
-Cassava piece (Augustus Pablo)
-west abyssinia (Augustus Pablo)
-Every knee shall bow (Johnny Clarck)
-oh how I love H.I.M. (Hugh Mundell)

Its very hard to select the 5 best tunes of all the roots compositions but however there's a little selection... of course, I don't forget all Bob's songs dat went staight to my heart.

well as I said it's not the "best" tunes but a selection that comes to your mind of songs that really reached you..

Pinchers - Never Hurt Her

Al Campbell - Gee Baby

Sizzla - Thank You Mama

Garnet Silk - The Rod

Dennis Brown - Together Brothers
