I don't get it. Is this supposed to fool anyone of being a real release?

Never seen this album and I'm 100% certain it has never been released. Just a round up of their singles for various producers trying to pass it off like a full LP.

Lionmighty and 5ucr4n haven't produced any of the songs from what I know. And I'm even more certain the group never went to Brazil's 5ucr4n Sound's studio to record either

Do I wish this LP were a reality? Yes though it is not, hopefully i'm wrong

This ain't no real release at all, but a nice idea for maybe Pressure Sounds' next project?
Just like this one
http://www.roots-archives.com/release/2170#rel2039
which made it to the archives and is another 7" collection.

Or this LP which I presume is just a collection of their 12" discos.

Great group

i long suspected that Skengdon LP doesn't exist...never seen it anywhere.
although Skengdon LP 008 isn't listed here -

so i thought it might be that. but probably it's the TAMLINS LP on Skengdon?
