Journey to Addis is the third album by Jamaicanreggae group Third World, released by Island Records in 1978. It marks a shift from pure reggae to a fusion of reggae and soul music. The album reached number 66 in Canada.
The group was looking for a worldwide success and not success in just Jamaica and England, hence the new fusion approach, which may not have pleased the die-hard reggae fans. A case in point may be the O'Jays cover "Now That We Found Love". The song peaked at number 10 in the UK, number 47 on the Billboard Hot 100, and number 55 on the RPM Top 100. The follow-up single, “Cool Meditation,” was a British top 20 hit.
