Recorded in Kingston, Jamaica, at the fabled Tuff Gong studios (birthplace of iconic albums by Bob Marley and his sons), as well as Shaggy's Big Yard Studio, among others, Gone Are the Days features the stamp of approval from some of the genre's heavyweights: The disc features collaborations with leading second-generation roots reggae artist Luciano ("Ruff Times") and Mikey General ("Universal Love"), as well as the smooth voices of Erica Newell and Rochelle Bradshaw (backing vocalists for Ziggy Marley and Luciano, respectively). Released online on September 26th, 2006, and in stores March 6, 2007, from New Door Records/UME, the 15-track disc also finds Israel, who has toured nationally with Luciano and Abijah, backed by a litany of top reggae musicians, including saxophonist Dean Fraser, lead guitarist Earl "Chinna" Smith and bassist Chris Meredith, who co-produced Gone Are the Days with Israel.[see full story for a listen]
