Undeniably a "Best of…" for two reasons. First, the tracks speak for themselves as a volume one. Second, this is probably the best technically recorded Shadow CD up to 1999. That it itself recommends it when compared to several other recordings of these and other hits.

Review

Shadow reaches back into soca’s glorious past and offers re-recordings of nostalgic hits which defined the early stages of calypso’s soulful transition to soca. With numbers such as Bassman, Janette, Pandora, I Come Out To Play and I Come Out To Party, Shadow reminds soca lovers of their beloved musical roots. He also includes his 1999 Carnival hits The Soca Boat, Stop the Boat and Don’t Call Me Alien. Shadow continues to experiment with rhythm. His lyrics, always noted for his wry sense of humour, are unmatched in the business. The 12 tracks on this CD remind soca music lovers of Shadow’s undeniable influence on soca and mark Shadow’s leap into parang soca with Christmas Nice. [DJ - Caribbean Beat]
