Xmatarryto
Classic Roots Reggae produced by Lee Scratch Perry. This is essentially 1972's "Beat Down Babylon" with 13 additional bonus tracks from the peak of Byles (aka King Chubby's) career, a career which has been hampered and curtailed by mental health issues. The original album all sounds OK, but whilst a lot of his material represents his Rastafari political and spiritual beliefs, other than the title track, my highlights are the more lovers orientated "I Don't Know Why" and "A Matter of Time" from the original album, and "Curley Locks", and my very favourite Junior Byles tune "The Long Way" from the bonus tracks.
