another reissue for Burning Sounds due in September:

https://www.amazon.co.uk/One-Eyed-Giant ... ng+sighter

Interesting as that album never was released on BS but on Trojan (UK) and Terminal (JA). There was even a reissue (CD only) on Jetstar if I remember correctly. It has some tough rhythms. Have they done a deal with Phil Pratt I wonder. Lovely productiobs so happy if more of his releases are available in the market again.

I guess they researched the album on Roots-Archives. Checked the Amazon-link and noticed this funny little piece in the product description (which looks like a patchwork of google hits on the guys name):
»_The album 'The One Eyed Giant' is regarded a long lost classic, mostly due to Phill Pratt's killer production which drew on riddems from tracks like Al Campbells 'Foot Stool', Delroy Websters 'Book Of Love' and Ken Boothe's 'Who Gets Your Love_.«

... which I thought sounded [familiar](http://www.roots-archives.com/forum/vie ... p?t=159829).

Only thing is that when I wrote about Ken Boothe's »Who Get's Your Love« I was referring to the flip of the Delroy Webster 12" and not a rhythm featuring on the Sighta album. And »Foot Stool« and »Book Of Love« are of course the same rhythm. I guess they couldn't be bothered to actually read what was being said.

Will try and find the CD ... if I recall correctly it had some liner notes in it talking a bit more in depth about King Sighter.

I have added the notes of the Jet Set release to Discogs

Check the images.

The label is actually Jet Set, a French label iirc.
