Brown, Dennis
Lovers Paradise
One of the most beloved of reggae vocalists, Dennis Brown was more popular than Marley in his native land and rated 'the Crown Prince' overseas for his excellence. 'Lover's Paradise' is an intriguing compilation of the early 1990s, gathering work for Bunny Lee and colleagues. Along with a retitled 'Have You Ever,' and 'Wild Fire' in the guise of the title track, there is a mix of agreeable love ballads, including Dennis' takes on Carlton & The Shoes' immortal 'Love Me Forever,' and originals such as 'Woman I Tell You No Lie' and the devotional 'Wolga Nagga Fire,' plus there's a hot cut of 'Sleng Teng' too. D. Brown fans take note!
