Niney The Observer ‎– Microphone Attack 1974-78


"'Blood & Fire has done it again. The best reggae label out there has put together another crucial selection of 70's DJ tracks. Classic works by U Roy, Big Youth and Dillinger, with a cut from one of my personal faves Trinity. However, the star of the show is the late great I Roy. I was a big fan of his work before, but he is simply dazzling on every track here. It helps that he's toasting over some Niney's greatest riddims and mind-bending dubs of the era ('Wolves & Leopards' by Dennis Brown, 'Paymaster' by Gregory Isaacs, 'Weeping' by Jr. Byles), but I Roy's versatility is unmatched and really shines through. From Rasta themes to early slackness stylee, he is head and shoulders above the rest. ..."
