Industry Reviews 3 Stars - Good - ...the title track grafts insistent tom-toms and slashing guitars onto a sinuous groove, while `Head Top' is a joyous romp....[the entire album is] enlivened by instrumental and production flourishes... Rolling Stone Magazine (09/02/1993)
...Ziggy and Co. seek a cleaner, more compact sound on JOY than on their last release, JAHMEKYA...they stick pretty close to the time-honored grooves of classic Jah music, albeit with '90s production values... Musician (07/01/1993)
3 Stars - Good - ...the sons and daughters of Bob and Rita still keep family faith with reggae basics....[Ziggy] pulls off images of resonance... Q Magazine (08/01/1993)
...a pop-reggae winner that can stand with anything that big Bob [Marley] ever did. JOY AND BLUES sways with hooky vamps that convey instant beach-classic status... - Rating: A Entertainment Weekly (06/25/1993)
