On Sound and Music, August, 2003
Leighton's debut album announces a talent engaged with the articulation of jubilant truths. Happiness is at the heart this enterprise.
Product Description
In his debut release on Pacific Coast Jazz, journeyman flutist Bradley Leighton provides an album of beautiful, artfully arranged jazz standards that combine Bradley's full, rich melodious playing of the flutes with one of Southern California's premier rhythm sections. Add to that a perfectly engineered recording and you will enjoy an album of exceptional quality one may not expect from an artist's first release. An album you will be able to enjoy over and over again.

An under-appreciated album.......2000-06-22
We all know about Wes Montgomery. It's a shame that more people don't know about the talent of his brothers, Monk (bass) and Buddy (piano). This album is recorded in the format in which Wes sounds best- guitar/piano/bass/drums. While Monk and Buddy may not be able to compare to the Flanagan and Heath (who backed him on "Incredible Jazz Guitar"), these guys were extremely cohesive, giving this album a funkier sound than many of Wes' other recordings.

Customer Reviews:
The Best Single Reggae Collection I Know!!.......2005-08-16
I agree with the reviewer below - there are a lot of reggae compilations. However, having seen many, I feel this is the best all around!
Having seen a number of these bands in the London when they toured from Jamaica, I can attest how great they are (+ the odd English band on here, such as Steel Pulse - Ku Klux Klan -their first single & arguably their finest moment).
If like many Americans, your exposure to reggae is virtually limited to Marley - don't get me wrong - he was great - his live shows were electric, (lucky me being from London!) then this is a great introduction. If you know your reggae, this rare CD should excite you.
If I bought one compilation this would be it.
Roots reggae.......2003-11-14
Lets say you are just getting into reggae, limited mostly to Bob Marley's music or for that matter know all about reggae. Either way this is one of those compilations and there are alot of them in the reggae bins, that is a must have. You could say this is roots music. The CD has a variety of artists from reggae's early days, including Jimmy Cliff, The Heptones, Dillinger, Third World, Toots & The Maytals, Burning Spear, Aswad and many more heavies but no Bob Marley. The point is there was reggae before BMW but it just hadn't hit the international level . There are a variety of styles offered on this disc including the dark and haunting rhythms of Burning Spear on the classic "Marcus Garvey," the dub hipnosis injected by Augustus Pablo as the beats drop and crash for a startling effect on "King Tubby meets The Rockers Uptown, the wacky toasting DJ vocal singing of Dillinger on "Cokane in my Brain," the old school Stax-gospel delivery of the Toots and the Maytals on "Reggae Got Soul," the harmony and political history lesson delivered by Third World on "96 Degrees in The Shade," the trans-Atlantic messages of Steel Pulse driven home on "Ku Klu Klan," the African sounds of King Sunny Ade on "Ja Funmi" and the dub poet Linton Kwesi Johnson's patois that invokes the rub-a-dub British style. This is a great disc that features some of the most classic songs associated with old school reggae. The booklet includes the names of the albums from which the music was compiled for your future reference as well as over 60 mango titles available at the time(1989) of this discs release. There is plenty of music here, 19 tracks with a running time of 71:07 for your listening pleasure. Old school reggae a it's best and highly recommended.
Must have it in your collection........1999-11-18
This collection is what reggae is all about. It has the soul and has the dancehall. If you listen to this CD you will be hooked on reggae.
