Alton Ellis - If I Had The Right I Love You Girl

Review by Caitlin Rowley

If I Had The Right I Love You Girl by Alton Ellis is a classic reggae album that showcases the artist's smooth and soulful vocals. The album features 12 tracks that are a mix of love songs and social commentary, with each song showcasing Ellis' ability to convey emotion through his voice.

The album opens with the title track "If I Had The Right I Love You Girl," a slow and melodic song that sets the tone for the rest of the album. The following track, "I Can't Stand It," is a more upbeat and lively tune that showcases Ellis' range as a performer.

Other standout tracks on the album include "Breaking Up," a heart-wrenching ballad about the pain of a breakup, and "Why Birds Follow Spring," a socially conscious song about the struggles of the working class.
