Why You so Craven

"WHY YOU SO CRAVEN" IS ISRAEL VIBRATION'S THIRD RELEASE. IF YOU'VE HEARD THIS ALBUM, YOU WOULD REALIZE THAT THEY DON'T DO THE BACKGROUND VOCALS ON EVERY SONG. THAT IS BECAUSE THEY NEVER GOT TO FINISH THE ALBUM. PERSONAL ISSUES WITHIN THE GROUP CAUSED THEM TO WALK OUT OF THE STUDIO SESSIONS. IT IS SAID THAT THE TAMLINS CAME IN AND COMPLETED THE BACKGROUND VOCALS. DESPITE THIS INCIDENT, THIS ALBUM STILL RANKS AMONG THEIR CLASSICS. EVERY SONG IS SURE TO GET YOUR ATTENTION, BUT THE ABSOLUTE STANDOUTS ARE "UNIVERSAL FATHER", WHICH OPENS THE ALBUM IN A POSITIVE WAY, "JAH IS THE WAY", THIS SONG IS BEAUTIFULLY SOLID. THERE ARE NO BACKGROUND VOCALS ON THIS ONE, BUT THAT DOESN'T MATTER. THE SONG IS GREAT. ANOTHER STANDOUT IS "HIGHWAY ROBBERY." THE OTHER SONGS ARE GREAT ALSO. THIS ALBUM WAS ORIGINALLY RECORDED IN THE EARLY 1980'S, BUT WAS LATER REISSUED BY RAS RECORDS IN 1991. THERE REALLY ISN'T MUCH MORE TO SAY, SINCE ISRAEL VIBRATION IS SO CONSISTENT WITH THEIR MUSIC. SO, IF YOU LOVE ISRAEL VIBRATION, OR JUST STRICTLY ROOTS REGGAE, THEN THIS ALBUM IS SURE TO SATISFY YOU. OF COURSE, I SAY THAT ABOUT ALL ISRAEL VIBRATION ALBUMS BECAUSE IT IS THE TRUTH.
