Jimmy Cliff in The Harder They Come (Original Soundtrack) [Deluxe Edition] 2xCD

Description: Jamaican filmmaker Perry Henzell made reggae an integral player in his gritty 1973 saga of a renegade Kingston singer who becomes a modern Robin Hood, casting one of the style's earliest stars, Jimmy Cliff, in the lead, and filling this soundtrack--here presented in a remastered version--with classics from Toots & the Maytals ("Pressure Drop," "Sweet and Dandy"), Desmond Dekker ("Shanty Town"), the Melodians ("Rivers of Babylon"), and the Slickers ("Johnny Too Bad"). Cliff himself gets pole position, however, getting in the first ("You Can Get It If You Really Want") and last ("The Harder They Come") words in this first-rate reggae primer, which also features Cliff's enduring "Many Rivers to Cross." --Sam Sutherland First CD contains the original soundtrack remastered. The second disc is a 18-track compilation titled Reggae Hit The Town: Crucial Reggae 1968-1972. See the track listing in the pictures. Both discs have a couple of very minor scratches. The digipak is in excellent shape. Plastic slip cover has some minor shelf wear.
