This CD and DVD combo is the size of a two-CD package, plus it has a nifty little booklet. The DVD is four hours of documentary on Studio One, the legendary Jamaican reggae studio run by Clement "Sir Coxsone" Dodd. It is a rough, fan-orientated documentary and is awesome in scope. I hope more labels do DVDs like this, where they go and document such an important scene. I'm a fan of Studio One engineer Sylvan Morris now because of this doc! The CD features many of the tunes you hear during the doc and is an excellent party starter, too. Highly recommended. (wwwsouljazz.com)

Say You Will
by Larry Crane
I admit that I'll buy occasional big budget, major label records just because I am curious about what can happen when lots of time and money (something I never get to see) are spent making a record....
