Our Take

If you thought the Maytals were just a bunch of dudes in cute little hats, think again, mate. This 2 on 1 Expanded Edition of "Monkey Man / From The Roots" will blow your mind faster than a pint at last call.

The pulsating rhythms, soulful harmonies, and infectious melodies will have you skanking all the way to the nearest record store, begging for more. Toots Hibbert's vocals are smoother than buttered crumpets on a Sunday morning, while the band's tight instrumentation will have you grooving like a madman.

"Monkey Man" is an absolute banger, with its funky guitar riffs and irresistible chorus that will have you singing along in no time. And "From The Roots" takes things to a whole new level, with its powerful lyrics and socially-conscious themes that will make you question everything you thought you knew about reggae music.

So grab your tea, put on your dancing shoes, and get ready to be transported to a world where the only thing that matters is good vibes and even better tunes. The Maytals have done it again, proving that they are legends in their own right and deserve a spot in every music lover's collection. Cheers to that, mate.
