Burning Spear- Garvey's Ghost (1976)- CD Rip (FLAC)
Here's Garvey's Ghost.
From Blurt:
Given the popularity Marcus Garvey in both Jamaica and England (and, to a lesser extent, America), and it seemed for a while that Burning Spear might challenge Bob Marley & the Wailers as the champions of reggae. Rodney was angered by Island's remix of the album's tracks, however, which changed the speed of many songs to appeal to white audiences... a situation not assuaged by the subsequent "dub mix" of Marcus Garvey that was released by Island as Garvey's Ghost in 1976.
Garvey's Ghost downplayed Rodney's intelligent lyricism and haunting vocals in favor of instrumental mixes of the original songs that placed the emphasis on The Black Disciples' amazing musical skills. With just scattershot vocals rising above the fray, the music is free to dart and jump throughout the mix, and while ten songs of mostly-instrumental dub may seem like overkill to the casual fan, it's worth the investment in time and attention to catch the subtle nuances and the immense talent poured into the performances on Garvey's Ghost.
