Armagideon Time... a mix

And you thought I was going to talk about the economic meltdown and start of the 2nd Great Depression but actually this is just another reggae mix. However, it is something a little more hot, dark and dangerous and has a few angry Brits thrown in for some cultural diversity.

I remember as a teen who didn't say no, I bought that Peter Tosh album for the cover and was pleasantly surprised by what I heard in side.

My favorite here is the Toots (with a close second Augustus Pablo & Lee Perry), but it definitely looks like my kind of reggae. The Wad always says that he can tell if a reggae song is going to suck or not within 20 seconds and these would probably pass muster with him too (no Marley though).

Some Aswad would go well.
