Reviews"Highlights are 'Pride And Joy Rock', a version of Leroy Smart's 'Pride And Ambition' and the title track, whose complicated lineage can be traced back to Willie Cobb's R&B hit 'You Don't Love Me'...", 5 stars out of 5 -- "The album made Youth's name and took the art of DJ music to another level with heavyweight tracks such as the title cut, based on the reggae-staple 'No No No'...", 4 stars out of 5 -- "Youth remains one of the most playful and engaging lyricists in reggae music, but here the rhythms and melodies behind the words are allowed to sparkle, too.", Included in Mojo's 50 Greatest Reggae Albums-"...A Winning Blend of Politics and Humor...", 4 stars out of 5 -- "Toasting over bass-driven versions of early reggae hits, he slayed rival DJs with pointed cultural and religious commentary and his trademark James Brown-ish shrieks and yells.", 5 stars out of 5 -- "It was this ex-hotel mechanic and cab driver's easeful toasting and dextrous weaving that raised the beam to an iconic conscious level."
An extraordinary recording.
Out of my musical comfort zone I play this on a regular basis and always hear new sounds I missed last time round. If in doubt, acquire a copy. You won't be disappointed.
