Can you think of a better way to celebrate Maxie Smith's 35 year long career in the music business? This exhaustive collection reminds you what Max Romeo was and still is for reggae music today. Since his 1968 success with "Wet Dreams" (that gave him notoriety for being banned by the BBC for its hot contents) he has been cutting hit after hit as a solo artist backed by the best Jamaican musicians. On this double album you can enjoy 31 of his best pieces from 1967 to 1971 and at the same time immerge yourself in music history with the in-depth liner notes that will tell the tale of Jamaica's efforts to rise to the top of the music industry against the musical powers that be. Thank you, Max Romeo, for being one of its heroes.
