Fantastic debut effort this 'Herbs Man' from Border born (a small town on the border between St. Mary and St. Ann) Ras Zacharri (pronounced "zakkaree"). Zacharri, a member of the Twelve Tribes movement, has a somewhat raw sounding voice reminiscent of that of Jah Mason. Yours truly can hardly remember the last album we truly enjoyed each song of, but 'Herbs Man' proved to be the exception to the rule. The well-known guests on the album (Gregory Isaacs, Luciano, Natty King) must also have picked up on Zacharri's potential. Top track: 'River Jordan', a duet with Luciano and a killer tune. A last minute addition to the top albums of 2009! Check it!
