Cornell Campbell - Natty Dread Anthology


Artist: Cornell Campbell

Album: Natty Dread - Anthology  (2005)

 

Cornell Campbell aka Don Cornell or Don Gorgon (born 23 November 1945, Kingston, Jamaica) is a reggae singer, best known for his falsetto voice, and his recordings at Studio One in the late 1960s and his work with Bunny Lee in the 1970s.

Cornell Campbell is Jamaica's answer to Curtis Mayfield. Most comprehensive collection of the singer's output ever released.

Wicked anthology of one of the sweetest voices in reggae riding some of the tuffest riddims! The essential Cornell Campbell is all here.

A great compilation for those who are new to his music and collectors. Disc one is a compilation of his 70's hits and disc two is a collection of the 80's songs. Most of those tracks are produced by Bunny Lee so the quality is guaranteed. 
I wouldn't call Cornel Campbell, a competition to Bob Marley or even close, but this CD collection is a must have For all Reggae fans.
