I was just checking for the Jamaican JAH GUIDANCE label release (which I have physically at hand as a stunningly MINT looking vinyl copy in a NEAR MINT looking sleeve) but could not find it listed here on Discogs.
And yes, as acroyear23 states it has remained an obscure and long sought after dub rarity.
Really serious DUB collectors feel free to link up if interested.

Edited one year agoYeah, what a petty move, BUT you defo can buy an already once purchased copy here, no problem: Not a penny will go to the guys responsible for it. I personally wouldn't buy it from amazon or other sellers that probably restock from the folks responsible, those who are cashing out on it. Scientists legacy is untouchable anyway

This is indeed an excellent reissue of another Scientist classic, as with all the Mirumir pressings of his work! The music sounds as great as ever, and it's nice to have the original artwork as opposed to the disrespectfully edited Greensleeves issues. Of course, this release only says Scientist on the front cover which is slightly altered from the originals, but Prince Jammy is fully present on the back cover and very much credited. An amazing dub album with an interesting history behind it, definitely the pressing to own! -

Excellent reissue quality... done with care and integrity! Thanks Mr. Overtone. -
Edited 5 years agoOne of the worst and disrespectful reissues ever done in the history of reissues ... two thumbs down!

Jah Guidance issued a totally different companion album in Jamaica on their label...It used the same sleeve and track listing as the Greensleeves disc but featured ten totally different Barrington Levy dubs, also mixed at King Tubby's studio. Although both discs featured dubs of the tracks 'Reggae Music,' 'Looking My Love' and 'Black Heart Man,' each mix on the Jah Guidance release is distinctly different from that of any other release ever issued; the mixes here are much sparser and rawer, aimed as they were at the Jamaican market. The original Jamaican dub mixes that appeared on the Jah Guidance album have remained an obscure and long sought after dub rarity.
