Thanks. Which are your favorites?

all of em are they are all channel one's crucial works ?

especailly showdown vol. 3 all of don carlos songs are strictly roots.

Yeah, I love vol. 3 too. At first the DOn Carlos side was my favorite, but recently The Gladiators side has really grown on me.

They all suck-save your money its all about Matisyahu!!!










Just kidding, little john and purpleman are my faves along w/ cocoa tea

All the albums are good

There all crucial and have all been repressed so should be easy enough to track down.

the volume 6. The tuff tuff riddims of the Roots Radics along with Frankie Paul's cultural lyrics written some 25 years ago yet ring tru today in the states, especially, " On my cardboard where I lay my head", all because of Babylon's avaricious greed & brutality pon the sufferah's. Cive thanks, More time.
