Maximum Joy are a post-punk band from Bristol, England, formed in 1981 and reunited in 2015. Pitchfork compared their sound to "one of the Slits backed by the Gang of Four, while PopMatters said, "Musically, the group’s use of complex percussion, horns, danceable bass lines, and overtly English female vocals built a bridge between the worlds of Afrobeat, reggae, avant-garde jazz, funk and pop". “I Can't Stand It Here On Quiet Nights” is centred around the trio of singles the band released on Dick O’Dell’s Y Records between 1981-1982.

Classic roots LP new to CD. With over 20 tracks new to CD. ncludes many roots classics from the late 70s. As the 70s drew to a close, Joel Augustus Gibbs had precious few serious challengers to his status as Jamaica’s premier record producer. Over the preceding decade, he had released a succession of best-selling 7” singles, with almost every performer of note on the island having worked for him during this time. The willingness of top performers to record for Gibbs is evidenced by the selection on the ‘United Reggae’ album, which first saw issue in 1979 and finally receives its CD debut more than 40 years later. In traditional Doctor Bird style, the original track-listing has been significantly bolstered by additional Joe Gibbs-produced recordings from the period, with the bonus material offering the very best of his pre-Dancehall output from 1978 and ’79.

This collection highlights the very best extended mixes released by Virgin Records on the company’s famed Front Line label, from 1976 to 1981. The 2CD set brings together the most sought-after reggae discomixes of the late 70s and early 80s and includes numerous recordings new to CD. Despite the fact that front line have already produced compilations recently that feature a fair number of discomixes ('presents roots' and 'sounds of reality'), they have still been able to squeeze out a mighty fine collection of such, as a stand alone set. Despite the brevity of the label's existence, the quality of material produced is nothing short of phenomenal, but i imagine that this will be the last in the series, as front line's timespan precludes both rocksteady and dancehall. The only real possibility for a further volume would be a 'deejay' set' although, again, a fair number of these were included in the 'roots' album (and here!).

Album Details
2 CD set. The roots of Reggae lie, as we know, in the small Caribbean island of Jamaica. It's origins can be found in African Caribbean music, but because of Jamaica's close ties with the US and Europe, in particular the UK, it is hardly surprising that a great many of Reggae Music's pioneers were hugely influenced in the '50s and '60s by the emerging artists from America and the UK, especially those involved with R&B and Soul. This double CD collection of some of Jamaica's finest exponents of Reggae shows some great examples of this outside influence on Reggae music. There's John Holt, in many peoples minds Reggae's finest ever vocalist, singing Wilson Pickett's classic 'In The Midnight Hour', Devon Russell saluting Curtis Mayfield with 'Move On Up' (taken from his tribute to Curtis Mayfield album Darker Than Blue), Sugar Minott covering the Righteous Brothers 'You've Lost That Loving Feeling', UK based Anthony Johnson with a version of The Commodores' 'Just To Be Close To You'. Elvis Presley gets a look in as Jackie Edwards sings 'Are You Lonesome Tonight', Delroy Wilson sings Marvin Gaye's timeless 'What's Going On' and Dennis Brown, The Crown Prince Of Reggae even manages a cover of The Beatles' 'You Won't See Me'. Prestige. 2006

It's one of the music industry's great ironies that today, outside of reggae circles, Jimmy Cliff is perhaps better known for his filmappearances than his music. Even after a string of hits, the singer never quite managed to break into the mainstream, although he seemed poised for international stardom during the late '60s/early '70s.
