Reggae Ambassadors: 20th Anniversary Collection

Editorial Reviews

All Music Guide - Chris Woodstra
While they didn't make groundbreaking albums, this pop-reggae outfit found a great deal of success with their ultra-smooth, mainstream singles. This two-disc anthology may be too much for the casual listener but the more ambitious will want to start here. All of the essential tracks are here combined with some fine live performances.
