For all I love Rodney at his heaviest, he can be so *sweet* and Nayah/Nyah Keith is him at his sweetest.

"marcus senior"... like funk music in a floating world

but really the moment that sends it over for me is when "civilize reggae" turns into a dub of itself

We’re in the midst of a truly god forsaken heat wave here and “Marcus Children Suffer” has been lodged in my skull.

I can respect Social Living as the favorite. The first Studio One lp was my introduction though—to Burning Spear but it was also probably the first reggae album I heard after Legend—and I don’t think anything will ever shift it

I'm a Marcus Garvey partisan myself. "Slavery Days" is just flawless

Yep Social Living is insane. "Civilized Reggae" is just ridiculously beautiful.
