    This is an awesome collection. There aren't a lot of really well known cuts, and some of the artists included are rather obscure. Highlights include Freddie McGregor's "Africa Here I Come", "More Creation" by Lennie Hibbert, all of side three, and "African Challenge" by Zoot Simms. Shame there's no Burning Spear, but Winston Jarrett's "Fear Not" uses the same rhythm as "Rocking Time". This pressing sounds really good, with plenty of low end, and virtually every track sounds clean, crisp and full. My copy plays nice and clean, with no noticeable surface noise. Five stars and a happy face.
