From The Roots: Horace Andy Meets Mad Professor (2004)

"For years, British reggae producer Mad Professor (aka Neal Fraser) has been plying his patented electronic-roots sound in the service of some of the most enjoyable modern dub, as well as to light new fire under veteran vocalists. But lack of fire was not the problem in this case -- Horace Andy, who was something of a star in Jamaica back in the 1970s and has since achieved significant crossover recognition for his work with trip-hop pioneers Massive Attack, has really never let up the pressure. His reedy falsetto is nicely balanced on this album by Mad Professor's rhythms, which alternate between militant rockers settings ("Bingy Man," "Zion the Holy Land") and gentle stagger-step dancehall beats ("Gimme What Me Want!!"), over which Andy sings dark anti-Babylonian imprecations ("Vanity Vanity") and one-drop romantic pleas ("For Me"). There is also a lame cover of Sandie Shaw's "Girl Don't Come," but that serves to point up the quality of almost every other track. Recommended." (AllMusic)
