Bad Boys

Just listen to the hit song BAD BOYS, and you’ll know that this is INNER CIRCLE.

It's hard to believe Inner Circle's been around since the days of Bob Marley. The lineup and style have changed, but the name remains the same. The Calton Coffee era of Inner Circle remains my favorite, and Bad Boys represents a sort of sweet spot within that era. Unfortunately, it was also just about the end.Most people will know the band from this album's title track, or possibly "Sweat (A la la la la long)." Both tracks had multiple releases, with "Bad Boys" being milked for all it was worth, with the success of "Cops," and both songs would continue to see release well after Coffee left the band. Both songs deserve the hype, however."Bad Boys" is a solid record from start to finish, with no absolutely bad tracks. There were a couple I found forgettable, such as "Slow It Down" and "Wrapped Up In Your Love," but they aren't bad songs--they are merely dwarfed by better, more memorable ones. Either track might be a solid addition to another, weaker album.Aside from "Bad Boys" and "Sweat," there are some other standout tracks: The sultry "Tear Down These Walls," a beautifully dark cover of "Down By The River" that rivals the original, and the bouncy "Rock With You."Even in an era of MP3s, custom playlists, and an interest in single tracks, there's enough standing out on this album to make it owrth listening to from start to finish.

I order a lot of CDs from here they are Great!

This is another of my choices of buying a cd just for one song. Being an avid fan of the American tv show "COPS" and hearing the title song played at the shows beginning and ending, I just had to have it. I doubt if there is one person who doesn't like the song. The rest of the songs are easy to listen to as well. This cd is a great buy, you will thoroughly enjoy listening to it....(and I'll bet you play "BAD BOYS" over and over).

I had this in cassette and was looking for a CD. The sound quality is great! The CD was new and was exactly what was advertised.

Great reggae album if you like Inner Circle and or old school Reggae music; there’s a different and what I consider the best version of their hit song Rock With You, which won’t be on any of their greatest hits or the very best albums. The original of Bad Boys theme from Cops, Sweat! Great album

What cha gunna do when they come for you :o). That song gets stuck in your head. You know how people know these songs but never know who sings them? That's who Inner Cirlce is. :o) my ALL time favorite is 'Down by the River'. You'll have to buy it to know JUST how good it really is. I mean it. Your missing out if you don't.
