What we have here is one of Cornell Campbell™s great Dancehall early 80™s set of song. Dancehall was when the beat slowed down to that classic one drop style that suited his voice so well. The album includes the title track ˜Boxing™ which was a massive hit for Cornell on its initial release in 1982. It also includes a Dancehall reworking of ˜Queen of the Minstrel™ and a fantastic dancehall cut to Bob Marley™s ˜Natty Dread™. This was a new chapter in Reggae™s sound that saw the rhythm slowed down and seemed to add even more emphasis to the songs meanings. A reissue of Cornell™s early 80™s ˜Boxing™ set is complete here. We have also added some other Cornell period classics to the CD version of this release.
