A solid 7 on first listen for me. Once again RP introduces me to music I've missed.
Nice to not see the usual silly complaints about anything religeous in a song's lyrics for once.

......"You wake up early every morning worrying about your earthly possessions"................where's my Augustus Pablo?.......

rasta....vrasta

Was a constant companion before I found the RP light!

One of the prettiest reggae songs ever.

Yep, I'll second that. I've been subbed to Pete Cogle's podcast for a couple of years now and have heard an astonishing variety of dub to suit all tastes. Some dub isn't reggae at all (for instance, Celt Islam, Natural Dub Cluster) and has a highly eclectic range of influences - 'world dance' might be a better label. And for the most part dub artists make their work available for free under Creative Commons.

Nope

Awesome, great to hear this... had some of these Third World albums back in the early 80s college days. (on vinyl of course).  Don't think I've heard them since.  

will be leaving work in 3 hours for 17days of holiday. this song gets me in the right mood! thanks

I like the font on the album cover. Nothing else.

Not worth commenting on except to say I CAN'T WAIT FOR THE NEXT SONG.

Oh Please, Reggae Cheese

Have this. A plate of modern dub as a podcast - http://petecogle.com/blog/category/the-dub-zone/

Or have a poke around here - http://reggaedubwise.com/

I am sure you will find as much variation in the genre as you like - and it is all recent stuff.

Bloorph!! Reggae has a certain sound; so does Jazz, Country, Folk, Classical, Pop, etc. So, do all those genres sound the same too?

     Yep, it is what it is.

Ouffff, all reagge sounds the same!!!!

Nice choice Bill.
I have been a big Third World fan since the early 80's.
You people who don't like reggae have no soul.

Have you been to jamaica? Then you know that this music is theirs. But live like they sing in their songs is to difficult for them. But who from the other artists does that!?
The music is great.

That's pretty ignorant. Third World have been going for a long old time. I remember listening to them back in the 80s. There's nothing "pseudo ethnic" about them. PC "morons" might or might not buy their stuff as a fashion statement, but that's not the band's fault. They're the real deal. I don't go a bundle on them myself because of their heavy-duty religion, same as I don't like Songs of Praise, but I'd never criticise their authenticity.
