Could anyone tell me who is the singer on the Shaka lp "Revelation Songs", track Lion Youth is wicked...also is there a dub counterpart to this lp?Ive heard a dub version of this song on "Vocals from the House of Shaka" which features Lion Youth as an extended discomix with a great bubbling synth outro
thanks

singer is jah shaka himself

came on 12"
in collaboration with mad professor

dub came indeed also on album

Thanks Vinnie, I didnt know Shaka sang at all. Does he sing on any other lps?

yes he has sung on a couple albums

'king's music'; 'my prayer' for instance

he has a very particular voice

My copy of the revelation songs album is missing side 1 track 5 "my song". Is this common? do i have a bad press? any info would be great. Also, shaka sings on "the music message"

My cope does as well from what I remember. It was an early 00's or late 90's press. Dunno if earlier presses included it.

thanks for the info

i think this album is with collaboration of norman grant from Twinkle brothers .

one of the best album from shaka production

like this album with the same force you can find sgt pepper metts shaka or one various artists jah shaka "message from africa "with some killer tracks like the one from poko batsari (lead vocal of misty in roots) so you can imagine how killer this album is.
Kings music is a great one too & you can search all the twinkle bros collaboration they are in the same style (respect & honour etc...)
