By 1973 Toots and The Maytals had their rabble-rousing bar-room reggae down to a fine art. Funky Kingston, recorded at Dynamic for Warwick Lyn and distributed by Chris Blackwell''''s Island Records, ramps the soul side of their sound for one of the most uplifting albums of all time.
The Maytals were a favourite of rock critics of the 70s and listening to Funky Kingston, it is easy to hear why. The muscular rhythms, Fred 'Toots' Hibbert''''s hoarse exhortations and his simple, slightly surreal lyrics harked back to the spirit of a more fundamental age that rock music had lost.
