Sorry to say but Prison Oval Rock from Barrington Levy is known as dancehall, not roots. Produced by the master-dancehallproducer of that time "Junjo" Lawes.

Nevertheless a fantastic album!!

DROP EVERYTHING IMMEDIATLY AND RUN TO THE STORE AND GET THESE !!!!!!!! Every single song on these albums is a good one and they all seem to be arranged quite well so get them, lite one up and enjoy.

- Abyssinians - Arise.
- Pablo Gad - Hard Times.
- Milton Henry - Who Do You Think I Am.

Three very nice selections in no particular order:

The Mighty Diamonds - Changes (1981)
The Royals - Pick up the pieces (1977)
Dennis Brown - Joseph´s coat of many colours

As many others has noticed, it is hard to choose only three records. These three records should be in every roots collection.
