Caught You is the third album by the reggae band Steel Pulse, released in 1980.[5] It was released in the United States as Reggae Fever.[6] Caught You was the band's final album for Island Records.[7]
Critical reception[edit]
AllMusic wrote that "while there were still heavy messages to be found in songs like 'Harassment' and 'Nyahbinghi Voyage', the band's jazzbo tendencies were front and center."[2] Trouser Press called the album "Steel Pulse at its most pop-oriented," but lamented the "increasing tendency towards preachy, trite lyrics."[8]
