IF YOU DO NOT OWN A COPY OF THIS ALBUM, GO OUT AND GET ONE. THAT IS ALL.

and once you've heard jimmy cliff ripping it up, check out just about any jerry garcia band version you can lay your ears on.

and if you go to see the movie, take lazlo with you :)

My favourite Jimmy Cliff movie has to be "Bongo Man".

I also really dug "Club Paradise", but that's more for SCTV and Robin Williams fans. Jimmy Cliff plays one of the characters, though, and does some good live tunes.

For a dude who's got thousands of shows, DVD's, CD's, tapes and albums I'd expect a bit more subtle selection. Didn't we all have this album when we were 14? Now the movie's pretty damns good, right up there with 'Countryman' as best Jamaican movie ever (although Dancehall Queen for anyone who's scene it is obviously a classic as is Thirld World Cop - 'back up! back up!'). I really like the scene in The Harder where the a cappela group is outside the gates of the record producer/ studio owner's (obviously a caricature of Sir Coxsone Dodd) singing a little ditty as his car goes through.
