The Congos & Friends - Fisherman Style - 2006 - 2CD + Video




As well as the original vocal and dub, this set features superb cuts from such legends as:
Horace Andy,
Big Youth,
Dillinger,
Prince Jazzbo,
Luciano,
Freddie McGregor,
Gregory Isaacs,
Max Romeo,
Sugar Minott,
Mykal Rose and
U-Roy,
Along with a further twelve versions showcasing both veteran and hot new artists.
The original Lee Perry-produced track was edited and mixed in Berlin, Germanyby the internationally renowned Rhythm and Sound crew.
This CD edition is enhanced with 2 short video clips (one per CD),of exclusive footage shot by Congo Ashanti Roy of the Congos.
The two CDs have been programmed so that the first disc features the veteran artists,whilst the second
 - with the exception of the Gregory Isaacs cut - showcases the newer talents.
The running order is bookended with the original vocal and dub cuts at the beginning and end.
Of the veterans, most of the vocalists elect to sing on themes of universal love and praise for the Almighty,whilst the deejays tend to talk about the actual activity of fishing in Jamaica.
Among the latter, Big Youth is outstanding, exhorting his flock in typical fashion,
that if ''You gi’ a man a fish, you feed him fi a day, but you teach him how to fish an’ he could feed a nation...'', but all the performances are similarly committed.
