a nice cd to listen to when you want to recall back in the day with the tunes such as zim zimma. ARP are quite influential on this album too. the foundation tune i found was the most enjoyable track . Ras Moses is one of the most artistic entertainers in the business and this is an album which emphsises this. Although i have found that more recent albums have been more thought provoking and enjoyable. U will also find that there is not much reference to the old arch enemy Bounty Killa, as you would find in albums of a later date but there is still plenty of fun to be had throughout the album. Overall i would say this is quite a decent album by the man.

Includes liner notes by Maxine Stowe. MANY MOODS OF MOSES was nominated for a 1999 Grammy for Best Reggae Album. Since debuting as a five year old prodigy, Beenie Man (aka Moses Davis) has quietly developed a reputation as a versatile performer whose pushes the boundaries of reggae. MANY MOODS OF MOSES finds Beenie Man applying his rapid-fire vocal style to duets with dancehall king Buju Banton ("Woman A Sample") and dancehall queen Lady Saw ("So Hot"). The opening cut, "Foundation," immediately indicates this isn't going to be a run-of-the-mill reggae album. Featuring cameos by Sly & Robbie and Dean Fraser, it has an African flavor to it that includes harmonizing a la Ladysmith Black Mambazo and a few verses of the folkloric "Wimoweh" before swinging into a contemporary dancehall beat. Elsewhere, Beenie Man throws in dub elements ("Have You Ever"), a tribute to Bob Marley and Steven Biko ("Steve Biko") and a hidden cover of Bobby Brown's "My Prerogative." Most surprising is the inclusion of "Ain't Gonna Figure," a pure country song recorded in Nashville and overflowing with fiddle and pedal steel.
Album Reviews
NME (4/11/98, p.40) - 7 (out of 10) - "...[Beenie Man] remains an idiosyncratic proposition....After 15 cuts of prime dancehall, "Ain't Gonna Figure It Yet" comes as something of an aftershock, as the sounds of a hillbilly hoedown lead to a straight-faced country song..."
