It is a lovely, cheerful album.

A type of Reggae really unlike any other - still tinged with the upbeat tempo and melodic charm of Ska and even Calypso.

Hints of early R&B a la Otis Redding and Sam Cooke.

This is a pretty unassuming opening track.

It gets more lively and un-obvious as it goes on.
