- TRULY AMAZING . . .
A really great album. Every single solitary song on here is amazing! No throwaways, no fillers. The perfect album for anybody, whether you're a reggae fan or not. Inspirational, will comfort you in times of need.

If you pass this one up, you're missing out on some truly great music.

- Island style
The upbeat tunes of Jimmy make you feel like you are in the islands. I lirics in many of his songs are very thought provoking, sometimes not politically correct, as in the track Vietnam. This CD has many of the same tracks as the other Jimmy greatest hits release. None the less, great listening.

- This is da bomb
Jimmy Cliff is to Reggae what James Brown is to Soul. He was the first to really bring it out from its obscure beginnings in Jamaica to the rest of the world. While they are protest songs, they're still upbeat and easy listening.

- Giving you hope
A fantastic compilation of the remarkable and upbeat music of Jimmy Cliff.
Jimmy cliff was one of the greatest acts to ever come out of Jamaica.
Jimmy Cliff is one of the greatest pioneers of reggae. He is my favourite reggae artist,and his sunshine feel-good is reggae-calypso music in it's best tradition. Reggae evolved from calypso, and one could say that reggae is he rock version of calypso.
This album features such geats as 1960'protest song Vietnam (billed by Bob Dylan as the best protest song ever), , African drumbeats of BONGO MAN (A COME), the angry The Harder They Come, the angst filled Sufferin' In The Land, the the beautiful and haunting MANY RIVERS TO CROSS.
and three really inspirational and uplifting hits, Hard Road ToTravel, . You Can Get It If You Really Want, and Sooner Or Later to keep on giving you hope in adversity.
