Thankfully, after the breakup of the original Wailers trio, Bunny Wailer and Peter Tosh along with some of the group's favored musicians continued to collaborate. In 1976, both Tosh and Bunny Wailer released their debut solo LPs ("Legalize It" and "Blackheart Man", respectively), and both remain absolute tours de force of roots reggae.

This may be the finest album put out by any ex-Wailer, to include Bob Marley's endlessly esteemed releases. Distinctive, passionate, gorgeously arranged, voiced, and performed.
