They've done Pink Floyd and Radiohead. Now they're doing the really big boys: a complete Sgt Pepper, rub-a-dub style, featuring a stickbundle of premier reggae voices. Frankie Paul, Mighty Diamonds, U-Roy, Michael Rose, Luciano, Ranking Roger, Sugar Minott... not a bad list of gnarly old sticks. And, of course, the Beatles classic survives the translation in almost all cases, although some songs are more sympathetic to the idiom than others. Utterly charming.
