Keith Poppin

Keith Poppin - Get Together - KP Productions.

Its so great to see Keith Poppin take matters into his own hands, and give his fans what they want - a greatest hits album! And one which he will get paid for, which is very important. Reggae fans who claim to love the music so much, really need to think about what they are doing when they are buying music. Do you really want to make a company who does not care about the music at all richer. Because, thats all you are doing. They do not release the music they do for love, its for money. If they loved the music so much, they would make sure the people who made it got paid. Blood and Fire have been doing that for over 10 years now, and so have Greensleeves for even longer, that is not the case for so many other companies. Until that changes - go and buy this album. Its full of great tunes including the man's mega hits hits like 'Envious' and 'Who Are You' plus 15 more of equal quality. A truly excellent set.  

Keith Poppin & The Jamrock Band - Speak Out Live and Direct -DVD

When the DVD revolution finally hit reggae music about ten years ago it was hoped that within no time at all, every artist would have some kind of DVD capturing them live on stage - and perhaps with some interview footage. It never happened!!! At first it perhaps the cost, but in no time at all the hardware and software was everywhere.

If only more DVDs like this excellent work from Keith Poppin existed! Its well done, very well done on a tight budget. But for fans of the man its a must! The band is tight - a great band as well - don't know anything about them at the moment - but they are very good. And with Keith in great form working his way through a selection of hits its got everything. Its also got some tunes from his brand new album 'Speak Out'. No interview footage - which would be nice, but an essential DVD.
