Tad’s Record Dancehall & Reggae Top Ten - Download for Free MP3 from Amazon

By 

ukcolin (Houston) –

  

Free mp3 download from Tad’s Record of mostly reggae.

Track 1 The late great Gregory Isaacs with [song title]. Old style reggae song w/simple beat, simple lyrics with modern content. Isaacs was a giant of Reggae this is a clean simple example of his work. He has much more music to try. [song title] is owned by AOL.

Anthony B. (Keith Blair) and Tosh are next with Sleeping In The Rain. Another old style sounding descriptive simple lyrics and backing tune. Song title features throughout the song. Singer doing a little more. Not bad.

Green Grass by Jah Cure. Man with a history providing a more intense reggae experience. Vocal rich, strong song suits Jah Cure’s persona. Nice song.

Track 4 I-Octane with My Life. Cool modern up beat song. Chatty with neat lyrical and musical hooks. Nothing fancy like it.

Buju Banton plays Time & Place. Hugely successful reggae singer with more than average amount of notoriety in his life. This song rocks as reggae rocks. Strong song, Marley opening that builds vocal and strolls to the end. Very cool.

Come Into My Room by Mavado feat. Stacious. Very cool fusion of reggae and RnB female and male vocal jousting on great track. Sexy and strong.

Hezron & Shaggy play Two Places. Great song, both artists singing around, through and with each other. Two styles merge very well on this very nice tune. Like it.

Track 8 is Cake Soap by Vybz Kartel. A man with a lot going on including producing this very cool song. Great backing sounds, up beat track. Very nice.

Beenie Man & Fambo with I’m Drinking/Rum & Red Bull. Great drinking song chorus is the key. What’s not to like.

Richie Spice play Yap Yap. One of the Bonner brothers playing neat well structured reggae pop song. Like it a lot.

No Games by Serani is next. Genre maybe Dancehall w/reggae in the mix. Straining vocal over neat backing noise. Under 3 minutes, short and sweet. Like it.

Last track is Perfect with Hand Cart Bwoy. Great Ska opening and strong roots sound on this rollin’ song. Great track.

Mostly Reggae some Dancehall (I dunno) free mp3 download from Tad’s Record. No Bob Marley covers, some very cool tracks and some okay songs.

If you are in the mood download onto your massive hard drive, be warned some of these Amazon samplers last 30 days before they are withdrawn or made for sale.

This has some great tracks, and this is not my number one genre; so I’m just gonna say overall this is a great download. The more you listen, the better it sounds.
Get it while you can!

Some big hits with no dent in the pocket. Sweet.
Perfect’s Hand Cart Bwoy being my favorite of this batch. The Buju tune is a big and lively affair recorded right before his unjust incarceration to Texas. The ever controversial Vybz and his declaration that he skin bleaches with Cake Soap. (Himself imprisoned on suspicion of murder!) Of course the Beenie Man and Fambo smash I’m Drinking/ Rum & Red Bull blew up all over R&B charts world-wide.
Old fashioned styled roots is delivered faithfully by I-Octane (a star to watch), Jah Cure (released from prison on a possession charge), the much loved Richie Spice and the Bobo chanter Anthony B voices over a classic track.
Mavado seems to be mellowing out and Serani gives us his usual version of a Jamaican Usher. Established superstar (by Jamrock standards anyway) Shaggy helps Hezron reach for the charts.
Mr Cool Ruler, Gregory Isaacs, drops another lover’s rock track. Tad’s is a serious producer’s label and has partnered up with the late Gregory Isaac’s African Museum label. So always expect good things from them.
