Formed in London in the mid-1970s just prior to the advent of punk rock, Aswad were one of the most successful of the first wave of U.K. roots reggae bands. Their combination of Rastafarianism, social consciousness, and earthy, impeccably performed music made them one of the mainstays of the British reggae movement at a time of great social and racial upheaval.
The rootsy combo had just switched record labels when they released this stylistically varied collection in 1981. The band had evolved considerably since its self-titled 1976 debut, jettisoning its Wailers influences in favor of a more confident, home-grown sound. Here, the lovers rock of "I Will Keep on Loving You" shares space with the militant roots-rockers rhythm of "Natural Progression" and the subtle, Rasta-influenced "He Gave the Sun to Shine," while the infectious, commercial "Tuff We Tuff" displays the band's confidence in forging a unique sound less beholden to Jamaica than to its west London roots.

日本に入る以前は断然、Rootsを演ってる。
あるDisc Guideに『自らを去勢した』と書かれたAswadだが、確かに“去勢”だよな。
Dubも安く手に入るなら聴いてみたい。
