Groundation - Next Generation - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Four years since their last studio Groundation returns with an album that is truly groundbreaking in both it's musical composition and social content. Taking the sound back to it's foundation the group has been rebuilt by lead vocalist Harrison Stafford and features a dynamic set of musicians from both Jamaica and California. InchThe Next GenerationInch takes off like a rocket opening with the first ever reggae big band song InchVanityInch (12 horns). Lyrically and conceptually the album stems from their previous InchA MiracleInch here shifting from the Mother of Creation to the child, InchThe Next Generation.Inch The album takes you on a journey from the militant InchFossil FuelsInch and InchProphets & ProfitInch to the subtle and heartfelt InchNew LifeInch and InchFather & ChildInch and everywhere in between. The sound quality is impeccable, engineered by the great Jim Fox and recorded all on analog equipment from the 1970s. This album will stand as a testament that Groundation has reclaimed their position as leaders in the search for new original music and that true to form improvisational Reggae/Jazz experience. A unique sound fans have enjoyed for two decades on the biggest stages all over the world.
