"This is actually the best version of "Hotel California". Side One (on CD) is flawless. Like having honey poured on your ears and Elle MacPherson licking it off, slowly. Shame the honey runs out on CD2 but you can't have everything."  Reply

"My favourite reggae singer's best album. No filler to be found anywhere; this is just banger after banger. Mainly lovers rock, but with a couple of great roots numbers at the end.
