    All Music Guide Review

    What's especially valuable about this two-disc survey of Jimmy Cliff's early years is that it collects in one package both his ska and reggae tracks for famed Jamaican producer Leslie Kong, and while it could be argued that Cliff didn't truly find his full creative voice until the advent of rocksteady and reggae, having his earlier ska singles here on the first disc affords a nice look at Cliff's roots and development. Seldom has a Jamaican artist's best work been so tied to a single producer, for the fact remains that Cliff, although he continues to make competent records, was never quite the same artistic and creative force after Kong's death in 1971. The very heart of Cliff's valuable and considerable legacy is here and it could very easily be argued that everything you need is in this package. ~ Steve Leggett, All Music Guide
