"The incomparable Yellowman is one of reggae's most popular artist, a dee jay/rapper with an uncanny knack for memorable lines and catchy melodies. His ability to entertain reigns supreme even when he's presenting a social commentary. During his early '80s breakthrough, when his prolific record sales made him the hottest new reggae artist on the scene, he frequently used his background as an albino who has experienced deprivation and prejudice as subject matter for his lyrics; he even boasted about it! In fact, the title of 'one in a million' is a direct reference to his albino condition. This LP is one of the high points of Yellowman's career , among the best of his break-through LPs . It includes such Yellowman hits as 'Operation Eradication,' (a serious commentary on the feared eradication square in Jamaica), 'Even Tide Fire,' and his signature rap 'Them A Mad Over Me,' making it a must for all yellow fans."

"Culture is widely acknowledged as the greatest roots reggae harmony group of all time; they made acclaimed records and toured widely for thirty years until lead singer Joseph Hill's untimely passing last year. Two Sevens Clash is hailed as one of the greatest, most influential records ever made; the title track's predictions brought the city of Kingston, Jamaica to a standstill on the fateful date of July 7, 1977, the date when "7's" would fully clash.The album was an important influence on a whole generation of punk rockers including The Clash and The Sex Pistols. Two Sevens Clash: The 30th Anniversary Edition is a deluxe collector's edition that will be a must-have for any music fan. Five bonus tracks including special 12" mixes, DJ versions and dubs previously available only on rare singles. Digitally remastered, state-of-the-art sound."
