Heri
This is not truly a compilation, but rather a reissue of Leroy Smart's "Ballistic Affair" LP (http://www.discogs.com/Leroy-Smart-Ballistic-Affair/release/1567507 ). The sound is heavy roots, and the lyrics are generally divided between heartbreak and Rastafarian concerns. The LP's full of impeccable grooves and musicianship courtesy of the Aggrovators, memorable and melodic tunes, and has a deep and detailed production. Smart's vocals are passionate and tasteful (though his tales of heartbreak rely on too many cliches). "Jehova" appears as an extended version that seamlessly blends the original vocal and the version into one killer track. This track is the monster centerpiece of the album, heavy with atmosphere and powerful vibes. This reissue is well pressed and probably could not sound much better for the price. Don't be deceived by the cheap looking graphics and cut-rate "best of" appearance; this is a massive and solid document of roots at the pinnacle.
