No drop in quality here.......2007-07-26
I don't know whether this soul or funk or rock and frankly I don't care. Its bloody good music. Robert Palmers vocals are as always that wonderful blue-eyed soul that so perfectly fitted this early part of his career.
Little Feat are heavily involved and the influence of groups like The Meters can still be heard in the grooves that are laid down.
I don't think theres a duff track on the album. Favourites well if I had to pick two it would be 'Fine Time' and 'Back In My Arms' which which sort of sums up the album for me, but on another day I'd probably pick two others!
If you like your music with a heavy dose of funk/soul and a sprinkling of Reggae this is an essential album to get.
now if only they made .......2007-01-12
a must for Robert Palmer fans..........
If you want to get to know how talented he was
get Sneakin Sally through the Alley, and pressure drop.

Album Description
Out of print in the U.S.! From his solo debut in the mid '70s to his death three decades later, Robert Palmer was one of Rock's finest vocalists, with each performance filled with soul, power and emotion. His undying musical creativity ensured that each of his albums would retain his signature sound, yet would be a successful step in a different direction. He was truly a Rock chameleon, as this album proves. Originally released in 1976, Pressure Drop features nine tracks including 'Give Me An Inch', 'Which Of Us Is The Fool' and 'Work To Make It Work' Universal.

struggle to overcome!.......2006-12-02
(A possible objection to this otherwise comprehensive and worthy compilation is that "Six and Seven Books of Moses" and the Maytals Rasta/Rockers late 70's interpretation of "Bam Bam" are -- sadly-- excluded.)
"When I Laugh" will be a minor revelation for Delta blues fans, with it's distinctly Robert Johnson blues vocal style and brass section reminiscent of The Dirty Dozen New Orleans octet.
"My New Name" -- like "Six and Seven Books" -- has a Cajun abandon to the vocal and rhythm.
The version of "Bam Bam" on CD 1 is the mid 60's cut, not the later confident, confessional Rasta meditation which appeared on the Island anthology. (It is worth noting that Chaka Demus and Pliers also released their own digital interpretation of this tune on the same backing track as "Murder She Wrote.")
"Bim Today" has a thudding b line reminiscent of Junior Delgado's "Tichion." "Scare Him" has a full speed and reckless Rockers rimshot snare pattern.
Cd 2 moves -- from jazz influenced bluebeat and ska -- into Toot's distinctive soulful reggae incarnation .
"It's You" on this 2nd cd gets the reggae treatment over a slower b line, contrasting with the earlier frantic ska interpretation. "Time Tough" is a stand out track here, with its fearful, yet stoic lyric about the struggle of life.

One word description: JOYOUS!.......2002-12-11
Toots Hibbert: The King of Old-Skool Reggae.......1999-02-22
When it comes to pure old-skool, shake-your-rump-Reggae, Toots & The Maytals are the undisputed champions. Their music IS reggae. It's the sound that every other reggae band has tried to duplicate, but has only managed to emulate. Toots, a.k.a. "The Ska Father," makes music that moves you, not spiritually or emotionally, but in raw physical sense. His songs (particularly "54-46" and "Pressure Drop") are just fun!
Recently I had the opportunity to Toots perform live at the TLA in Philly, and I must say that while he may appear aged, he's still a kid at heart. He pours every ounce of energy he's got into his shows. That one concert was the most amazing inn-person musical experience I've ever had. Mid-way through the show he literally invited the audience up onto the stage, where I and everybody who felt the urge cut loose to the band's thumping reggae beats. Toots even took the time between songs to shake every audience member's hand as they climbed down from the stage.
This album is incredible. It's jam packed with 75 minutes of classic riddims; songs maybe you've never heard but have always felt. Taken from the original 8-tracks, the songs (all 24 of them) preserve their antique feel.
An essential album for anyone who loves music that makes you feel good. A classic.
