Deep Funk Bass Grooves

This album is filled with deep funk bass grooves from start to finish. The gatefold on this album is some serious eye candy.

Let's Go!!

Good early 2000's hip-hop album with a couple popular singles. Quality pressing, good condition and great price.

Old School Rocksteady Music!

This is a great example of fun and upbeat rocksteady music. The title track has some of my favourite lyrics:
"And We've got to live some life
And before we're old
And we've got to live some life
And before we're cold"

Album is produced by Lee "Scratch" Perry and some of the sounds have Perry's signature use of flange and reverb.
