Opis

Lovers rock to brytyjski podgatunek muzyki reggae, popularny w latach 70. i 80. Powstał jako kontrapunkt dla bardziej wojowniczego, przesyconego ideami rastafari i polityką roots reggae. Na jego romantyczną naturę duży wpływ miały gładkie brzmienia chicagowskiego i filadelfijskiego soulu połączone z jamajskimi rytmami rocksteady. Nic dziwnego, że lovers rock szczególną popularność cieszy się wśród kobiet.

Kolekcja "Lovers Rock (The Soulful Sound of Romantic Reggae)" zawiera 25 najpopularniejszych i najbardziej wpływowych nagrań w tym stylu, przynosząc twórczość z dorobku takich artystów, jak Janet Kay, Carroll Thompson, Louisa Mark, Gregory Isaacs, Dennis Brown, John Holt czy Sugar Minott.
