I heard about an album named "The Way to mount zion". Can you tell if it is a good album? is it dub or vocal?

It's kind of a mixed bag of everything. Some Dub, some instrumentals, some vocals.

Glen Brown is best known as one of the hardest roots producers of the 70s, though he started as a singer recording mainly duets as in Lloyd & Glen along Lloyd Robinson and in Dave & Glen where he was joined by Dave Barker.
The vocal recordings are nowadays spread far and wide on compilations by Studio One, Joe Gibbs and Lee Perry productions.
