I think that princess lady is not so bad. what about the beautiful song "untrue love"

Pisces, i know it seems like the re-issues will bring down the value of the negus roots albums, but i think it will actually make them more valuable. Many people will have the re-issued albums, but the originals are the ones to keep...they are as good as gold now. true collectors will search to the ends of the earth to find the originals - i know i would. to find the original album would be like finding buried treasure.

If they continue to reissue remixed versions of the albums (like Princess Lady), I don't think resale prices should drop significantly.

Princess Lady has a couple of good songs but some incredibly bad ones: Old Dusty Clothes has to be the worst, embarrisingly bad reggae song I've ever heard, it's cringe inducing!
