| 1. |  | Based on a True Story by Fat Freddy's Drop Price: £6.98 Customer Review:  After hearing about this group through friends I had to check them out - a few expensive downloads later I had tickets to their concert and I haven't looked back since. This is a fantastic album from track one right through to the end. Smooth lyrics, matched to even smoother basslines, piercing... |

| 2. |  | The Specials by Specials Price: £3.98 Customer Review: This is my favourite of the 2 Specials albums. 'More Specials' is quirkier, but this is equally fun and more up-tempo. I love to leap around to this record at every oportunity, (much to the annoyance of my neighbours). I could wiffle on about all of the profound lyrics and such and Terry Hall's... |

| 4. |  | Barry Myers Presents Scratchy Sounds (Ska, Dub, Roots & Reggae Nuggets) by Various Artists Price: £3.48 Customer Review: DJ Scratchy was a regular figure at Punk gigs in the late 70's. He was the DJ who introduced Reggae, Ska and Dub to the bondage trousered crowds at Clash gigs, tirelessly promoting the Jamaican sound. Here with this double CD he relaunched his career, and what a wonderful collection it is, with a... |

| 5. | ![The Best Of UB40, Volumes 1 and 2 [2CD]](http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/41VS33OY59L._SL160_.jpg) | The Best Of UB40, Volumes 1 & 2 [2CD] by UB40 Price: £10.98 Customer Review: this was a big favourite of mine, growing up in the 80's and early 90's. this album is by far the best reggae collection of ub40's. i also bought the ub40 dvd which has a few others which do not feature on the collection. if you want relaxing, soul trippin music this summer, then i suggest this... |

| 6. |  | Man Like I by Natty Price: £4.98 Customer Review:  Of course, I first heard Natty doing an acoustic of "Bedroom Eyes" which made me sit up and listen. There's been far too much self-referential "talky" music recently, where the singer is trying to suggest that they are rather clever and knowing, and just end up looking arrogant. While some... |

| 7. |  | More Specials by Specials Price: £5.37 Customer Review: With 1980's adventurous More Specials the Coventry band overcame the 'difficult second album syndrome', a fate which has befallen many an artist over the years. They did this by broadening their musical palette; where their classic debut (effectively) embraces the ska and reggae of Prince Buster,... |

| 9. |  | Dancehall - the Rise of Jamaican Dancehall Culture: Soul Jazz Presents by Various Artists Price: £10.98 Customer Review:  This is the CD compilation accompanying the release of Beth Lesser's book of photography which has the same title. The compilation comprises two fairly well packed CDs of music but lacks overall cohesion due to not being chronological and not keeping to its remit covering both the pre-dancehall... |

| 10. |  | Dub Side of the Moon: a Reggae Tribute to Dark Side of the Moon by Easy Star All-Stars Customer Review: This is an astonishing record! On paper the idea of a reggae cover of Dark Side Of The Moon sounds demented - but in practise it's truly fabulous. The All-Stars perform dub alchemy, conjuring roots rock out of prog rock like it was the most natural progression. Great Gig In The Sky had me sobbing at... |
