Third

For some time now, much
popular music has had a
definite reggae influence.
Heavy emphasis on a rhyth-
mic beat seems to be the
current trend.

Third World, though, is a
reggae band that has in-
troduced other musical
styles into their material.
Traces of Rhythm and Blues
and Rock are clearly identifi-
able.

sary. Although they stress
inadequasies in the social
condition, there is an under-

a religion, and symbolises
this in their manner of

dress, the audience seemed
more able to identify with
what they had to say in their
music.

group had an opportunity to
display their own particular
talent in different parts of
the set where they each took
on the role of lead musician.

The only criticism of Third
World’s performance at The
Commodore is the show was
too short. This was probably
due to the fact that there
was an extra show added
after the first one sold out.

Third World promised to
return next year. If they do,
I recommend you catch their
act.
