By now, 10 years after his breakthrough release Where There Is Life, you know what to expect: a mix of roots, dancehall, folk, country, and gospel, all delivered with his appealing voice and unflappable spirit. Commandeering the riddim behind Tanya Stephens's recent hit "It's a Pity," Luciano comes up with a better song, pound for pound, with the single "Stay Away." Eschewing Stephens's scandalous talk, he pleads for Jah children to avoid war and strife, backed by a triumphant horn section. The album occasionally gets overly mellow -- there are about two ballads too many -- but Luciano's ability to inspire far outweighs any other consideration.
