Yellowman - Zungguzungguguzungguzeng [LP]

Zungguzungguguzungguzeng Yellowman Originally released in 1983, the album, titled after one of his most iconic hits in dancehall, brings together Roots Radics, engineer Errol Thompson, and producer Henry 'Junjo' Lawes at the height of Yellowman's ascension. It's a hits-heavy outing, made all the more pleasurable by the combination of big, booming beats and the DJ's delightful chatter. - On the simmering Take Me to Jamaica, the DJ expounds on the glory of Jamaican women, all of whom, we well know from past songs, desperately desire the oh-so-wonderful Yellowman. Amidst the fun and bragging, there's still room for more serious matters. A pair of religiously themed songs are also featured, as well as a couple of cultural numbers. The Good the Bad & the Ugly is particularly noteworthy for it's hard-hitting look at ghetto life, based on the pair's own poverty-stricken pasts.
