Moments Worth Listening For
The sudden leap into a piercing falsetto trill during the title track that cuts through the thick bassline.
The way the drums drop into a skeletal dub-inflected rhythm on 'Jah Saved My Life', leaving the vocals completely exposed.
The rhythmic interplay between the staccato guitar chops and the vocal ad-libs on 'Come in a Dance'.
