Which albums are perfect from beginning to end?

Which albums can you listen to start to finish? I have plenty with a few hits, but I can’t think of any (of the few that I have) that I can through start to finish.

Tribute to slackness

Slackness has been an integral part of Reggae/Dancehall for the last 50 years, yet I don't see it getting much props here.

How about we show some love and share some of our favorite slack tunes here.

Max Romeo - Wet Dreams

Came out in 69 (lol); obviously, he's singing about a leaky roof.

Admiral Bailey - Punnany

A classic that is still big today.

Baby Cham - More Wood

Big hit from the 90s; because anyone who have ever lived out in the country knows the struggle.

Looking for song from Rage

Missed the title card for a song on Rage this morning. I was vibing out to a great song, the vocals sounded like reggae but the song itself had a more rap structure and flow. The music video was a dude singing in a house, his band playing and dancing around him, whilst having a house party.

Would really like to find this song. If anyone knows please let me know.

Who else misses Garnett Silk?

It's been 30 years yet his music lives on. It's hard to think of another artist who left such a high-quality collection of music in the short time he was with us.

Ernest Ranglin - Minuit (lyrics?)

Looking for lyrics in English, or a loose translation of the songs meaning? I love this song and the feel of it, but never known the lyrical meaning.

Hell & Fire/Trinity Crying In The Ghetto 12"

One of my favorite 12" combos. First heard it on a Heartbeat compilation of GG Ranglin productions. The whole thing hits hard.
