aswad were the young lions of ladbroke grove, the black british bards and balladeers who came of age after dreadlocks were more widely known, and dub had first flexed its tracks. aswad helped define a genuine british reggae sound - still heavy on the bass and drum sound and drenched in the sweetness of lover's rock, britain's original reggae girl group sound but also crisp as pop. with an awesome 21 album under their belt and a string of top 10 hits they are, without doubt, the uk's finest reggae band. from the first session, recorded for john peel in1976, through to their last in 1994, this compilation charts the rise to success of the west london reggae band who helped show the world what it meant to be a first generation brit of caribbean descent.
