200%? HOW IS THAT POSSIBLE?

Here's a mixed bag of reggae cuts, a compilation called 200% Dynamite!, with all sorts of odds and ends. I'm not sure what the underlying theme is; it really is all over the place. Toots and the Maytals' "Funky Kingston" is probably the best known. There's a U Roy ("Tom Drunk"!), Augustus Pablo, a surprisingly funky cut from the Skatalites, Prince Buster, the Upsetters, Jackie Mittoo and a bunch of others. Check out the Abyssinians' "Mandela". That thing is stoney.
