Aswad - Live In London '2024

Tracks list

SMC Records is thrilled to announce the upcoming release of "Live In London,"
the electrifying new live album from reggae legends Aswad. 

"Live In London" was expertly mixed by Christian Cowlin and mastered by Mark
Gittins, ensuring that every note and beat resonates with clarity and depth.
Also, the vibrant cover art, designed by Thomas Hughes, captures the energy and
spirit of Aswad's live performance, making it a standout addition to any music
collection.

Aswad is arguably Britain's most successful reggae band, in terms of both
popularity and longevity. Critical opinion of their body of work is often
divided. Some hail their early material as the greatest roots reggae Britain
ever produced, beginning with their 1975 self-titled debut, which highlighted
the plight of the immigrant Jamaican in the unfamiliar and often hostile
environment of '70s London. Others find their later pop-crossover phase more
distinctive and unique, when they shifted to funk and soul, resulting in the
U.K. chart-topper "Don't Turn Around." Regardless, Aswad's ability to adapt
themselves to the changing times -- new musical trends, shifting personnel --
was ultimately the driving force behind their decades-long career.
