Edward II - miles away, 1991

"Some ideas lead you to wonder why nobody thought of them before, while you wonder why anybody thought of other ideas at all. Edward II's fusion of British folk dance and Morris music with reggae is definitely in the latter category, but the result is genuinely fun. Rees Wesson's accordion and Jon Moore's fiddle fit right in with Alton Zebby's slapped reggae percussion and the lively brass section. As with Edward II's other releases, there are some intermittently interesting straightforward reggae cuts on Wicked Men, but things only get really interesting when the band starts playing with folk influences. The last two cuts, the Morris dance tune "Shepherd's Hey" and the rocked-up folk lament "List for a Sailor," are the best tracks on the album, and both received limited airplay when the album was released."
