Is the Jah Big - Music So Hot LP (1986) available on CD?

Peace,

Hoosierdude

no only on lp ... unless people made boots and selling at shops... san fran. i heard u can still find copies

yeah the there is only 3 track that are good

hoosier didnt ask for opinions on the lp, he obviously likes it enough to by it so who cares if you only like a few tracks?

omg, in my opinion this album is crazy!

just burnt copies maybe, the album's sound is poor - the volume. but mashin lp for sure.

Despite not asking for a review of this lp, I finally wanted to know what's so BIG about this lp . Seems like it's been mentioned and asked about a fair amount of times.

So I plopped it on and even though it wasn't bad, it was far from great imo. Music So Hot and Now's The Time were ok and the best track was a dub, Soma Dub.

In general, the music was average, same with Jah Big's voice, and a couple of tracks were too heavy ;-0 with guitar. No suprise there after I read that the guitar player coproduced the lp. At least it wasn't hard rock guitar stylee.

I still think the best thing about this lp shows up on the back cover. Aside from Soma Dub, I think I decided to keep this lp because of the fabulous cut and paste picture where Jah Big is mysteriously standing next to Selassie. Classic cut and paste.

Agree with Sergio - not a well mixed lp.

i have the jah big album i am wondering if he had another after music so hot does anyone know

Jah BIg's album is MURDERRRR..... I was fortunate enough to find a SEALED copy at a small record store in Ventura, CA...I purchased it for FOUR american dollars... I agree the cut and paste is pretty funny but in my opinion this is a HARD roots album...a must have for any collector

All these posts are great, but I am after some
live Jah Big shows on CDR or Jah Big Albums on CD.

Is this an impossible task?

Is this artist's music very rare or something?

Please help.

Thanks.
