I don't know what album this tracklist is from, but my copy of "The Toughest" that I've had for 10 years, is only 11 tracks, and it starts with "Coming in Hot", and ends with "In my Song". I would watch out for this, as you may not get what you're expecting. As for my cd, it's some of the best reggae I've ever heard, and rivals Bob Marley's "Legend" as the best of the genre. Of course "Peter Tosh" has numerous collections out, so you should be able to find what you want on most of them.
"The Toughest" is the Peter Tosh equivalent to Bob Marley's "Legend" album. Like "Legend", "The Toughest" is a great album and an excellent starting point; but if you want the full effect of both Marley's and Tosh's greatness, you have to delve deeper into their catalogs than simply the "greatest hits" collections.
If you like Bob Marley Legends, you will love this. Great Reggae songs like Mystic Man, Bush Doctor, Reggaemylitis and the best Jonny B. Goode rendition since Michael J. Fox on "Back to the Future". A Classic.
This Heartbeat cd hits Tosh's Rude Boy credentials right on the head and helps to show that Tosh, more than Marley, gave the Wailers their roots credibility.
The songs, like Tosh himself, are rough, no holds barred attacks on whomever and whatever he felt like attacking. Many of these songs, including "400 Years," "(Brand New)Secondhand," the anthem "I'm the Toughest," "Don't Look Back," and "No Sympathy," would all see the light of day on Wailers or Tosh solo albums.
This is an amazing collection of songs and I'm happy that its there to be had. Well worth listening to.
I don't own this particular album as I tend to stay away from best of's (you miss way too much good music). Having said that I do own 9 Peter Tosh CD's and every song on this album is on those 9. This album does seem to have a pretty fair track list but as with all greatest hit or best of's you miss too many good songs. Peter tosh is one of those artists that you really need to get as many of his individual albums as you can to hear some of his best work. But if you only want the best of's then this one is pretty good but I would recomend you get "Legalize It" and "Equal Rights" to go with it,atleast, otherwise you lose everything on his first 2 solo albums.
