    Can't have a reggae thread w/o mentioning the mind-bogglingly great
    _100-400% Dynamite!_ series on Soul Jazz/Universal Sounds-- probably
    single-handedly responsible for the big Jamaican music resurgence
    I've been seeing amongst a certain segment of hipster lately (myself
    included!)

    Their Jackie Mittoo comp is also sheer genius. I have them to thank
    for turning me onto to Jackie Mittoo (well, & making it stick-- a
    friend had played me _Evening Time_ which was really nice, but not
    like the later stuff!) & the mighty Cedric "Im" Brooks, the finest
    spiritual-roots-reggae sax player I've heard!
