Toots and the Maytals were always a little rough around the edges until Chris Blackwell's polished them up for this album. On the original, other than the title track, it's all a little too polished, and yet again let down by weak material. Rispondi Avvertimi Helpful. Great Lp from Toots & The Maytalls top tracks are Funky Kingston. and my personal all time ever favourite is there Version of the Richard Berry song-Louie louie-check out that Funky drummer!
