Wailing was a good record as well

Ites are right, only "Wailing souls" and "wild suspense" are decent albums with lot of killers, all the rest of their albums have only 1 or 2 real great songs only in, their "very best of" is a very good compilation.

This one is IMO the best one: "Thae Best Of" (Empire)

More or less the core of the Pressure Sounds comp.

I must be missing something. I had Wild Supsense and played it several times, unable to get into it.

So I sold it. And I don't often sell ANYTHING I don't have duplicates of!

From one mod to the other...
if you like this one
[cover=2969,3399] or this [cover=6397,2979]
you will like this one
[cover=618,730]
or even more this one
[cover=617,730]
The one that will get you hooked is still missing in the archives (think I have to change that). Try to get a copy of 'Jah Shaka presents Dub Masters Volume 1' (Island/Mango MLPM 1001, c&p 1989) featuring among others the dubplate versions of Wailing Souls' "Very Well", "Row Fisherman" and "Wild Suspense" in dub.

Took delivery of "Wild Suspense" last night (on the back of this thread) and can only assume it's a grower!!:)

Buying one album?

Let me know if Wild Suspense does grow on you 6anbatte, I listened three or four time and it didn't take root with me.

Shame, as the LP was mint, vinyl and cover and sold for peanuts.
