Description

25th Anniversary Vinyl 2LP Reissue with Three New Bonus Tracks Created and Mixed by Buju Banton!

Island/UMe celebrate the 25th anniversary of Jamaican dancehall innovator Buju Banton's boundary-shattering  1995 masterpiece ‘Til Shiloh with a new vinyl 2LP reissue featuring three new bonus tracks created and mixed by Buju exclusively for this edition. The set includes five tracks which are appearing on vinyl for the first time. Described by The New York Times as "an extraordinarily intense performer, and a surprisingly versatile one" and by Pitchfork as "the quintessential dancehall artist," there is no living artist more crucial to Jamaican music. And ‘Til Shiloh, which explored Banton's Rastafarian faith on highlights like "‘Til I'm Laid to Rest," "Untold Stories," "Not An Easy Road," and fan favorites "Murderer," "Champion," and "Wanna Be Loved" are the ideal gateway to his hallowed discography.

'Til Shiloh, named after a saying meaning "forever," pivoted from Banton's previous rude-boy style to introspective roots reggae. With Donovan Germain, Lisa Cortes, Bobby "Digital" Dixon, Dave Kelly, Sylvester Gorton and Steely & Clevie behind the board, 'Til Shiloh's introspective themes, innovative use of digital programming and prayerful vibe changed reggae and dancehall permanently. ‘Til Shiloh was acclaimed by BBC as "a very listenable landmark" which "saw the brash ‘rockstone' deejay turn dreadlocked throwback," by Spin, which called it the 10th best album of 1995 and his voice "an uncontrollably vibrant lickshot of adrenaline," and by The Village Voice's Robert Christgau, who awarded the album an A-minus, as "the most fully accomplished reggae album since the prime of Black Uhuru."

"Reggae music's mission is to uplift, educate and eradicate negativity from the minds of the people globally," Banton says. A quarter-century after ‘Til Shiloh, this living legend continues to create and remains vital, inspirational and revolutionary.
