Notes

Full title on sleeve and disc: Junjo Presents: Big Showdown.

3 cardboard sleeve with 7 page booklet glued in and separate cardboard inner sleeves.

Originally released in 1980. This is a remaster of Scientist vs. Prince Jammy - Big Showdown with the tracks on Disc 2 being the corresponding vocal cuts to the dub versions on Disc 1. On this release the original producer (Henry 'Junjo' Lawes) is listed as the artist 'presenting' this 2CD set. Therefore, this release contains blatantly revisionist artwork. Both Scientist and Prince Jammy are removed from the title, while Scientist is made unrecognizable on the front cover. Moreover, the artwork by Tony McDermott is not credited on the cover (though mentioned in the liner notes).

Durations not on release.
