The second in what will hopefully become an ongoing series from Makasound, Kiddus I's Inna de Yard continues the acoustic, guitar-driven sound of its predecessor by Earl "Chinna" Smith. It was even recorded outdoors in the same "yard". As on Smith's Yard, the music here doesn't always feature the typical reggae "one-drop" rhythm; much of it is strumming and owes as much to folk as it does to reggae. But as Bob Marley's "Redemption Song" has shown, such as sound can work within the reggae realm, and work well. That said Kiddus I's album isn't quite as astounding as Smith's, but Smith's benefited from the inclusion of several remakes culled from his 30-year career. Presumably, the songs on Kiddus I's set are all originals. Kiddus I himself is a mysterious figure. His song "Graduation in Zion" was featured on the soundtrack to the 1978 film Rockers, but little has been hear of him since the early '80s. In fact, this is, amazingly, his first album. Where's he been? I don't know, but I'm glad he's back. If Kiddus I is at all rusty, it doesn't show here. His voice is firm and engaging, a bit like Luciano (Granted, he pre-dates Luciano by quite a few years.). The opening tune, "A Prayer," is a solid introduction to the album's placid sound, while the second, "Where Are You Going," builds on it in classic fashion, shaping an evocative masterpiece. "No Salvation Until" is one of the few tracks with a standard one-drop rhythm, which lends a more militant sound. "Reached Their Peaks" likewise is darker in tone, but is balanced out by the Winter Version of "Troubled Time," a lively, rambling spiritual that invigorates for 10 minutes straight. Kiddus I's Yard continues the organic experience of Smith's album, made all the more hypnotic by Kiddus I's evocative vocals.

Tingvall Trio

Начало Tingvall Trio было положено шведским пианистом и композитором Мартином Тингвалом, отсюда, собственно, и корни названия коллектива. Музыкальная составляющая этого коллектива — скандинавский джаз с оттенком кубинского стиля и легким веянием рок'н'ролла. В качестве одного из элементов композиции, трио используют традиционные Шведские народные песни.
Очень достойный т.н. северный джаз, настоятельно рекомендую.

Various Artists - By Special Request (196X-7X)

A great LP jampacked with cool rock steady and early reggae, some in that marvellous, hectic "skinhead reggae" pace! Not a dull song here.

Heartbeat continues in their mission of unravelling songs that have fallen into oblivion. Here I was happy to discover that e.g. Jacob Miller's Peace Treaty Special from 1978 was in fact based upon an earlier song: The Victor's You Can't Stop Me. Also it is so nice to finally get great songs like True True True by Ken Parker, not on some ill-sounding Trojan release using all but spoiled vinyl but taken straight from the master tapes. Don't except hi-fi quality on all tracks though, some are rather dull - it is old material - but a few of them are clear and detailed. The bass sometimes goes real low - the kind of sound you can only get from vinyl!

All tracks here appear in their pristine form without those stupid drum overdubs which started appearing circa 1974. (It appears it was Duke Reid who started this and was later imitated by Coxsone Dodd, so there is a wealth of spoiled 60s/early 70s material now circulating.)

Unfortunately this brand new mono LP is marred by a constant surface crackle, which, however, I can live with. It is not even audible on lower listening levels like when using this beautiful album of vintage reggae for relaxed listening in the evening! Before down-loading, pick a part of e.g. the groovy organ instrumental (track 6) and decide whether you can tolerate the vinyl defect. It does not shine through more than this.

The Lappers - Are You Ready? (2010) [EP]

From Kingston dancehall through London streets to the Russian soul... Рецепт угарного настроения от The Lappers оживает в вибрациях ska, rocksteady и early reggae, приправленных необузданным весельем английского паба. Впервые зазвучав на жарких танцплощадках Кингстона и Монтего Бэй почти полвека назад, наша музыка пересекла атлантический океан и через бристольские доки просочилась на улицы Лондона. Там ритм слабой доли стал пульсом новой субкультуры, основанной на дружбе, чести, верности традициям и любви к танцам до упада – именно с этими ценностями связана музыка Skinhead reggae. Сегодня эта музыка, прорвав барьеры времени и расстояний, пришла в Россию. Она обрела новое звучание в наших сердцах: обжигающее, как ямайский ром, душевное, как пинта английского эля.
