The original 1974 release of Keith Hudson's Flesh Of My Skin showcased the enduring strength and pivotal importance of the development of reggae music, Keith Hudson's complete mastery of the genre and the unqualified praise that followed its release was fully justified. "The most moving, satisfying piece of Jamaican music I've heard since 'Catch A Fire' and surpasses that album, this is the album of the year without a doubt." Carl Gayle, Black Music Magazine
