Right up there with Marley, Toots, and Cliff
It is Peter Tosh at his best with great backup vocals and band. This classic will never get dated. His signature lead guitar is played beautifully like no other. It's no wonder Bob Marley chose him to be in "The Wailers!" Buy this CD, pop it in your player, and let it take you higher!.


Feel No Way

And even though I try my best
I still can't find no happiness, no happiness"
The words of the truth seeker and philosopher. Not only has this album, originally released in 1983, got an incredible beat that you will give you the reggae sensation through your body, Tosh also gives us the most incredible quotable lyrics such as on 'Stop That Train':
"All my life, I've been a lonely man
Trying to teach people who don't understand.
The album begins with deep spiritual ode to a return to Africa with Mama Africa
There is the catchy message in Glass Houses: " If you living in a glass house, don't throw stones. And if you can't take stones, well then don' throw stones"
The famous reggae rocker Johnny B Goode, the cynical 'Peace Treaty' referring to Tosh's take on Jamaican politics at the time, and the funky Maga Dog. And the rhythmic musing on "Feel No Way' about coming close to 'pay day'.
If reggae is your type of music, then you simply have to have this album.


So good iam litterally shaking!
Another remastered masterpiece from one of the greatest reggae star in the world. . highly recommended cd.


A roots gem
Every track is a masterpiece. Mama Africa is an essential album to any reggae fan. It's obvious that Tosh put his heart and soul into this album. A classic that will leave the listener breathless.


Deserves 100 Stars!
Not only is Mr. This album could've easily been titled "The Handbook of Life"! It's diverse, righteous, brutally honest and entertaining. Tosh one of the greatest musicans ever but he has the most commanding voice in any genre of music. If you don't believe me, listen to "Not Gonna Give It Up". You'll see!.
