Edited 2 years agoI'm not so convinced that this was worth the long wait; it does sound good but I expected more I think. The label states 'REMASTERED' and 'PRODUCED & MIXED by LEE PERRY'. My original (digital copy) of the Blood & Fire release stilll sounds pretty damn good. This release is very basic with no sleeve notes or additional useful history or recording & production details. -

Edited 2 years agoCan confirm it is not the Original Lee Perry mix. Sounds pretty good though the Blood and Fire release still stomps this one. I sold my 3 LP deluxe edition a while back but that one was pressed over three sides for the proper album. Would like to hear other thoughts on this release though! -
