The Heptones - Book Of Rule
Review by angela candelaresi
The Heptones' album Book of Rule is a classic reggae album that showcases the band's unique sound and style. Released in 1983, the album features a mix of traditional reggae rhythms and modern production techniques, resulting in a timeless sound that still resonates with fans today.
The album opens with the title track, "Book of Rule," which sets the tone for the rest of the album with its upbeat rhythm and uplifting lyrics. Other standout tracks include "Party Time," "Sweet Talking," and "Hypocrite," each of which showcases the band's tight harmonies and infectious grooves.
One of the strengths of Book of Rule is the way it blends different styles and influences, from the soulful ballad "I Do Love You" to the funky "Sufferer's Time." This makes for a diverse and engaging listening experience that keeps the listener engaged from start to finish.

About The Heptones
