At least they mention Scientist's name in the description. Anyway... as I said before, a lot of the newer dub fans will be happy about these releases.

I've never heard the Little John/Billy Boyo tracks. But buying the CD just for these two tracks? Hmmm

Never heard Janet Sinclair?!!!! Forget this LP, and fly to find the 12"

(should soon be re-issued by VP!!!!!!!!)

Thanks for the link. Epic tune! Classic early 80s dancehall rules imho.

I just ordered these releases. I guess Scientist himself had authorized some Russian boots a couple of years back. I have many of the originals and I hate that they redid the artwork but the bonus disc is def a nice touch.
