Condition Vinyl / Labels:
VG++ minor surface scuffing, it plays very clean for a JA LP - the best we've heard for this pressing! MP3 Sample!! (click the record) Sleeve: VG+ There is a lot of light general wear, nowhere in particular, just all over. The edges are slightly more worn, pretty good all over! Info
Original Jamaican issue.
Mythical first press mix with hand painted yellow lines rumoured to be done by Perry and the Congos themselves. Apparently Lee Perry didn't like the blue lines down the side and wanted them green - so he painted them over with a weak yellow! It's just the sort of thing that makes Perry what he is.
Quite apart from that extremely rare sleeve, this is the genuine first pressing and it's the best we've ever seen so don't sleep folks - probably won't turn up again in a hurry.
Check the MP3 sample! This record has been cleaned on a VPi HW17F Professional record cleaning machine.
