Gregory Isaacs - Mr. Isaacs LP
SKU: VPRL4201 OverviewDescription:
Among the most important full-length album works from one of
reggae’s greatest singers, Mr. Isaacs shows the great Gregory
Isaacs in the prime of his career in 1976. Better known for his
love songs, Isaacs was equally adept at cultural themes. The tracks
“Set The Captives Free” and “Slave Master” are among the most
popular in his catalog, the latter immortalized on film in the
movie Rockers. The track “Storm” became an early dancehall
favorite, its rhythm track reimagined no fewer than 75 times over
the last 40 years. Isaacs love of rocksteady shines in his cover of
the Silvertones’ “Smile,” and his soulful side comes through on a
cover of The Temptations’ “Get Ready.” The breadth of material on
Mr. Isaacs is the hallmark of a reggae classic.
