Total Reggae: Roots

Overview

As a part of the 2013 Total Reggae series by VP Records, Total Reggae: Roots offers a wide assortment of roots hits, drawing from the golden age of reggae music in the early '70s. The artists involved are among the best of the genre -- including Culture, Gregory Isaacs, Peter Tosh, Barrington Levy, Junior Murvin, and Lee Perry -- and the 42 songs included in the two-CD set are good starting points for those looking to be introduced to what many consider to be the best era in reggae history. ~ Jason Lymangrover
