best MICHAL ROSE LP after he left BLACK UHURU ?!?!?!?!?

Post by imet »

hi everybody

it's not a question, it's a statement

there has been so much debating recently about this album, that is credited somewhere to be one of the best of the great michael rose after he started his solo carieers back in the late 80s

...it's on M RECORDS.... ;)
name of the album is AFRICAN ROOTS...artists line up includes SKULLY, CHINNA SMITH, DEAN FRASER, STYLE SCOTT, NORMAN GRANT, VIN GORDON & MORE !!!

supervisor ?? ...RYAN MOORE himself...
it's a GREAT roots album, nothing more to say


WHY AM I OPENING THIS THREAD??

...because this great album had then a follow up, WARRIORS, that is EVEN BETTER, more special vocalizing and better arrangments

problem is that weeks after its release i realized it was circulating only on CD

...so i decided to enquiry ryan moore to ask him about and he told me he wasn't willing to realese it on vinyl because sales of AFRICAN ROOTS were so poor that it didn't worth the dare...

so i say to myself, this label isn't a best seller, VP is, and this is a shame from my viewpoint

i would like to develop a more argumented though, but i am not a philosopher, and english is not my language

...moreover in the past i felt like i was a voice in wilderness...
...sorry for my average english !! ;P

I was lucky enough to receive the African Roots cd back in 2006 for a rehearsal and remember discussing with the musicians if this could really have been recorded in modern times as the sound as similar to early 80's channel one.

I went to the M records website and did my research on the producer Ryan Moore.we had a few email discussions and he's a top man.

Don't sleep on this mans productions,you will miss out on some good modern reggae music.

Bless up
