| In
Reggae Culture, we can find many harmony
groups: one lead singer and one or two, or
even three back ground vocalists.
Just thinking of a few isn't really that
difficult: Israel Vibration, Black Uhuru,
Wailing Souls, and of course Culture.
And we shouldn't forget that the Wailers
originally started out as a vocal trio too.
Culture ruled the Jamaican charts when
Bob Marley and the Wailers were riding the
international charts, and that gives an
indication to the relevance of the works of
Culture.
This album will introduce you to Culture
at work: catchy riddims, vocals from the
heart.
Many consider it to be one of their
weaker albums, but if that really is, then
it says something about Culture's Quality!
Oh yes, it's true that the music on
Culture At Work is quite different then the
Rockers we can find on classics such as
Culture's debut Two Sevens Clash, but the
music is well digestive.
Especially when you realize that in 1986
(when this album was originally recorded)
Jamaica was being flooded with cocaine in an
attempt by Babylon System to stop the
movement of Rastafari from liberating the
people's minds.
And Culture has always been on the
forefront in the struggle against Babylon.
