вЂњWisdom DubвЂќ is Al at the controls revisiting the previous track. The whole album conveys vibrations that reflect musical runnings from around 1974-76. Al creates an atmosphere thatвЂ™s a vivid reflection of the mid вЂ™70s. The hornsmen create powerful arrangements with depth and respect to Foundation theory. This is a DREAD riddim with KT Lowry adding sky high trumpet. Real authentic sound! вЂњAncient WisdomвЂќ is a Jazz inflected Rocker that evokes memories of Cedric Brooks. Sax, trumpet and VinвЂ™s trombone are triumphant in nature, soaring above AlвЂ™s ethereal mix. Seriously, this sounds like a King TubbyвЂ™s slice with taut drums, NatвЂ™s lilting bass (his grasp of Reggae riddim is impeccable) and earthly percussion. The listener is taken back to the mid вЂ™70s up Warieka Hill. вЂњYouth Iron RockвЂќ opens up the album with Glorious tones.
