5 out of 5 stars Beat stress with this CD!.......2006-03-22

This is by far my favorite David Arkenstone CD. I guess I just love the steel drums. Whenever I put in on, it just puts me in a good mood. Let alone everyone else in our family. It makes you want to lay down in a hammock and dream your cares away. But its also great to listen to to pass the time when driving too. I can almost feel the salt air of the ocean when listen to Caribbean Dreams. Thanks David!

5 out of 5 stars Dreams took me there.......2005-10-12

I ordered this cd to take with me on vacation to Freeport Grand Bahamas Island. It was wonderful. Playing it on vacation and coming home and playing it....Takes me in my mind right back there. Wonderful island feel in the songs. Enjoy

5 out of 5 stars A Carribean Dream.......2005-04-26

A nice blend of south seas traditional beats,reggae etc.,making the listener feel like they are on a tropical cruise, without the words to clutter it all up. An excellent instrumental,in my books, of which they should put out more.

4 out of 5 stars MARLEY DUB.......2003-07-19

Marley tracks without Bob Marley singing, is what this CD is all about. If the listeners haven't been exposed to the dub sound it may not be for them. Overall, I enjoy the dub sound so it fits into the reggae that I listen to. Definitely cool out music to chill to. But nothing compares to singing and messages of Bob.

5 out of 5 stars let freedome ring.......2003-06-26

i really only respect a tribute if it has roots and i think that this one has roots. Chriss balckwell (bobs original producer and the owner of island records) and bill laswell were in kingston and chriss mentioned helping him to work on a marley translation project. and laswell not knowing bob personally he in true dub style which any one in dub mentallity would have done decided to take some of his most favorite songs and not just give you another bob compillation for you to breath new life into a soul not just glorify over and over again. what do you think dub is its just regge classics rut up retranslated reverbed delayed.. new life. imagine a phychadelic spirtual ambient dream relaxing listening to your regular marley it might turn into it naturally try it. only features marley in maybe 3 songs sparcelly and the original backround singers. all new mixes new instuments never heard before im marley tablas, new keyboards, cut ups, dense delays,dub

5 out of 5 stars I'm late to the party..........2001-12-17

I remember ignoring this album when it was originally released because the thought of an ambient Marley record sounded lame. What a terrible mistake on my part! This CD just flattened me! There's a lot more going on than just a typical dub remix so some purists may not dig it, but if you appreciate ambient and good dub this is all you. I can't believe how well these songs work in this context (with the possible exception of No Woman No Cry; it's good but not great.) This is a sweet record to chill out to or to put on when you want the mood laid back. It sounds cool in the headphones but in a good system with big bass it really opens up. Bass players take heed: Aston "Family Man" Barrett will take you to school and in this dubbed out mix he's never been more up front. Listen and learn.
I was concerned that this was just an excuse to use the Marley name but it was obviously done with the love and respect that the music and Marley's spirituality deserves. Praise to Bill Laswell for doing it right. Wish I'd caught on sooner, but better late than never.

1 out of 5 stars Please just stick to the roots of reggae.......2001-12-17

I love Marley as much as the next Rasta, but please oh please, only listen if you are truly a fan of whale sounds and bird sounds to fall asleep to. This is an ambient translation alright. I think Bob would have loved to see this NOT happen. I am a true roots fan and my tastes go far beyond just Bob, but I do know when I am hearing something that doesn't belong on the shelf mixed with reggae. I wish people would just leave Bob's music alone. It's like adding Slayer's guitar work over the top of John Tesh's greatest hits and calling it Dreams of Carnage: A Satanic Translation of a dork's fairy music. Something like that. Well whatever...buy this if you want...don't go around saying that I didn't warn you!

5 out of 5 stars outstanding mix of dub and ambient.......2001-11-03

Gets your groove on or lulls you to dreamland, depending on your mood. A rare gem. Expect quite a bit of tampering and ambient sounds and big dubby drum and bass licks from the original masters. NO BEAT BOX HERE. High praise to Laswell for that restraint. It's wonderful to hear the bass and drums from these big talents up front and isolated. The only track that is average is No Woman No Cry. Hard to say why, just not the best song for dub treatment.

      Album Description

      This release is a collection of Ada de Luque's compositions in a smooth jazz, adult contemporary genre, with a touch of Latin-Caribbean and classical music, encompassing all of her favorite music styles. The lyrics reflect feelings of love, romance, sensuality, joy, and spirituality. Ada has purposely kept her vocal interpretation highly sensual, sultry and soothing, giving a hint of her generous voice only in a few instances, therefore keeping her "summer dreams" sweet. Ada teams up in the arrangements with her good friend and highly talented pianist-arranger Rey Rivera. Their choice of harmonic progressions, modulations and instrumentations shows a perfect blend of their musical tastes. Performing with Ada and lending their talents to this release are some of the best musicians from South Florida: Dr. John Georgini (trumpet/flugle horn), Rey Rivera (piano/keyboards/arrangements), Manny Lopez (guitars), Daniel Berroa (percussion), Greg Diaz (saxophone/flute), Kenny Nieves (guitars), Deya Deynova (cello).
