I have Sheffield Steel from Joe Cocker but would like to check out more of Sly & Robbie. I know there was a topic "drop 1" somewhere in 2003 but which recordings would you recommend as a must have?
Live Taxi Connection, Black Uhuru, and Peter Tosh's Legalize It are good starting points.

Thanks, any recording specific from Black Uhuru?
For what it's worth I saw this amazing rhythm section with Peter Tosh in 1978. They opened for the Stones in a 2000 seat hall in Ft. Worth and had the joint groovin' so hard every song I couldn't help but think: "The Stones are gonna have to be awful damned good to top this." But they didn't even come close.
And the one drop, "Is kool, mon."
Damn damn damn, I was only three years old in 1978 [img]eek.gif[/img] wish I saw them live.
Yeah but you're a young man with the world at your feet and I'm an old fart (with some cool memories.) [img]wink.gif[/img]

Their best work is there for me.
Cheers.
I did Rodge thanks, but there are only two or three songs on the best of Grace Jones with Sly & Robbie, if I am not wrong. Still a good CD, brings back some memories of a young man [img]wink.gif[/img]
5/8 if you wanna share more [img]tongue.gif[/img]
I just bought best of Harold Melvin and the Blue Notes, O'Jays and Sly and the family Stone. [img]redface.gif[/img] working on my groove.
Whaddya wanna hear about, mayne?
Bonzo with Zep?
Mitchell with Hendrix?
Cobham with Mahavishnu?
My sit-down with Tony Williams?
<s>This totally smokin' hottie in North Carolina?</s>
But I've never seen Vinnie live. But thanks to HOD I've got over 30 live CDs of The Man! I guess I can die a happy man.
Would you mind moving my wheelchair over by the window? [img]wink.gif[/img]
I would love to hear about your sit-down with Tony and the Hendrix stuff with Mitchell. [img]tongue.gif[/img] Especially since I am playing some old Hendrix stuff with my hobby band. It's hard to get the same feel.
I am getting more and more into "old" music lately. Bought Santana with Tony too. WOW
Would you like a blanket on your lap when I move your wheelchair over to the window? [img]cool.gif[/img]
