Born To Love You - Jamaican Love Songs

Jamaican love songs were a constant in the ever evolving sounds and journeys that reggae music took us on, from ska to rocksteady to the early reggae sounds of the late 1960s early 1970s. We have complied a great selection of songs that all deal with that timeless subject matter. Max Romeos heartfelt Sometimes opens our set in fine style, known more for his roots singing this song proves what a great singer he is. The Melodians a great Jamaican vocal group are featured here with Best Girl. The Sensations provide us with our title track Born To Love You and the theme for this compilation a great rocksteady tune with fantastic harmonies. Alton Ellis gives us the soulful Room Full Of Tears. Ken Boothe provides us with his rendition of Dennis Browns Money In My Pocket the ode that money cannot buy you everything. Cornell Campbell sings one of his most overlooked classic songs with his prideful She Wears My Ring. The great singer of love songs himself Mr John Holt tells us that we should all Reconsider, before giving up on love and a great lost singer Monty Morris gives us two great examples of how to find love in Do It My Way and Magic Moments. A great selection delivered as only Jamaica can do with style and feeling...
