- What a CD!!!

When i recieved this CD as a gift, i was a little skeptical. I wasn't really that much of a fan. But after listening to the 1st track....I was HOOKED! This CD features some absolute classics. I have to say that the re-mastering REALLY makes a difference, especially to 'Baby come Back' and 'Electric Avenue'. I would recommend this CD to people who LOVE good, late 80's-style, music even if they aren't, necessarily, Eddy Grant fans. I wasn't, but I am now!

- Showcases Grant's catchy blend of pop and reggae with hits from 1977 to 2001

Eddy Grant is one of the giants of the reggae genre. The unique late Seventies and Eighties sound will bring back memories of lazy, sunny days.

This album succesfully showcases his foot-tapping , feel-good music with tracks such as the disco-beat Electric Avenue in both the 1982 original and the 2001 Ringband Remix. The laidback I Don't Wanna Dance (1982) , Can't Get Enough of You (1981) and Do You Feel My Love (1981) , the Afro-Carribean jamboree Hello Africa (1977), the jiving Latin Love Affair (1982) , the fast-paced Nobody's Got Time (1977) the call for an end to African civil wars , Living On The Frontline (1979), the energetic Killer On the Rampage (1982) and the Hip-Hop style Ten Out of Ten (2001). If you like music that makes you fell good, this album will get you hooked on Eddy Grant's fantastic reggae-pop blend.
