This has been on my “to do” list for a while now and finally, I’m getting it done. I got this album from Claudius Linton called “Roots Master: The Vintage Roots Reggae Singles” and was very pleasantly surprised. This album is a must have for any roots reggae lover. His voice reminds me a bit of the great Clinton Fearon (one of my all-time favorite vocalists [he used to sing with The Gladiators]), but Claudius definitely has a distinct sound. This is one of those albums that you can hit play on and enjoy from cover to cover without needing to skip anything. I wanted to take the time to bring some attention to this album since Claudius is not as well known as he should be. For more specific information about him, check out the record label’s website: SunKingRecords.com. There is plenty of good info there, that I don’t want to repeat here. But…just to add a little something, Claudius has been doing this reggae music for a long time now and used to hang with Bob Marley back in the day. Then, basically, Claudius kinda dissapeared…and now he’s back.
So, if your down with that rootical sound of great reggae bands like Culture and Burning Spear, check that site out, get your read on, and buy this album.

Peace, enjoy, lemme know what you think,
