"One of around half a dozen essential LPs from the Wackies label, and along with Wayne Jarrett's Bubble Up, Junior Delahaye's Showcase and John Clarke's Visions prime examples of the heavy roots style that became Bushwackie's production trademark. Thick, dense and immense - the version of Money Mo..."  [+]  Reply

"This makes a really welcome change from so much recent singer songwriter music which, even if it's not outright bad, leaves very little impact on me. Central here is Joanna's voice, which has a roughness that seizes you through each of these pared back tracks. They remind me a little of Joanna Ne..."  [+]  Reply

"Own: UK pressing from 1978 called Forward On To Zion (aka "satta"), Different records. Exemplary mid-tempo Reggae, beautifully done all round, no stretching out. Boys look sharp on the back cover. Title-cut ftw."  Reply

"Superlative alt rock. In same league as The World As It Is Today, but slightly less socio-political. Challenging, difficult music, sparse and beautiful, terrifying. Listen to Rats And Monkeys for a psychedelic thrill someday."  Reply

"You know what I like? When the personality of a music artist shines as a bright as their music. Larger than life characters who write music and tackle subjects that you would have never guessed someone would have taken on. I'm still searching for these artists. No matter how many I have in my col..."  [+]  Reply

"Certainly, the first half of the record is considerably stronger than the second, but it is a very pretty and elegant experimental album by Ryuichi Sakamoto that's definitely worth a shot."  Reply
