What the Critics Say
Next to the Marley family, the Morgan family headed by reggae legend Denroy Morgan is perhaps the best-known clan of singing siblings in reggae. Listening to the soulful, spirit-filled vocals on Live! In Europe 2000, it's easy to understand why Morgan Heritage has gained such note. The group stays true to the classic roots reggae sound -- from the excellent rhythm section to the beautiful harmonizing -- without appearing dated or too predictable. This album showcases mellow, uplifting tunes with catchy rhythms, from the pure melodies on "Revolution" to the bubbling good vibes of "Reggae Bring Back Love." If there is a downside to this CD, it's that there is so much fire-and-brimstone proselytizing that it sometimes resembles a church revival more than a reggae concert. The drawn-out "Speech," in which Denroy Morgan goes on and on about Rasta, was unecessary and earns a low point on an otherwise enjoyable offering. ~ Rosalind Cummings-Yeates, All Music Guide
