The reggae-pop outfit Big Mountain is best known for its reggaefied cover of Peter Frampton's "Baby, I Love Your Way," and that track appears, naturally, on THE BEST OF BIG MOUNTAIN. Also included are Big Mountain's versions of Al Green's "Let's Stay Together" and Bill Withers's "Lean On Me," which inject the perennial favorites with the same bouncy, sunny vibe that enlivens the Frampton cover. Reggae purists may recoil at Big Mountain's sleek, pop-minded approach to the genre, but this sweet, melodic collection of tunes will appeal to fans of UB40, Inner Circle, and Ziggy Marley. |
