Yes, them both are great, but check out Cultural Roots and their first samename album , that puts them into maybe 5 best roots reggae LP-s ever !

Restect,
JAHstice.

I HONESTLY BLACK SLATE IS BETTER THAN CULTURAL ROOTS BECUASE IF U NOTICE EVERY BLACK SLATE ALBUM HAS HEAVY ROOTS IN IT AND CULTURAL ROOTS DOES AS WELL BUT NOT AS MUCH AS BLACK SLATE I MEAN IM A BIG FAN OF CULTURAL ROOTS BUT WHEN IT COMES DOWN TO THEM 2 I GOT TO GIVE IT UP TO BLACK SLATE.

if the music is good no need to choose jus feel the pleasure of both hit yourself with music...

yes dread,
Black Slate a rule...so much love for the sound I have nearly spun the life out of all my Black Slate LPs. I have been searching in vain to replace these with CDs. I live in the usa and cannot find anyone selling their sound. Any advice where to find these gems?

This thread makes me wonder if I should check Black Slate! Cultural Roots are simply superb and 'Revolutionary Sounds' has been a favourite of mine since it was released.

So I'm the Black slate fan N°1 bis , I love cultural roots but Black Slate is really n°1. I 've got all the LP,12" and 7" by BS, except one or two (as far I as Know) And I love Them All. My favorite reggae song (i mean among all) is BONDAGE & SLAVERY wich is so crucial, (match it with the dub version from Ogima LP). I fall in love with UK ROOTS with the song Reggae Regular - blackstarliner then I 've been buying a lot of vintage reggae from UK and until now Black Slate is my N°1 UK Band. I love the singing style of Keith Drummond.
