Like everything else on Reggae Archives it is fully licensed straight from the artists :

My copy is on the way, hope it's not gonna be a big dissapointment...already fed up with bad sounding reissues

[critic]

The reason i bought it was that it is licensed.

Listen to the press when you get it. Rubbish

Only good for killing zombies dude:)

I beg to differ: the sound is very good.

I take advantage of this thread to big up Bristol Archives Records to the maximum. They are doing an awesome job all around.

Is it just me, but it's all about the b side - Fa Ward - killer tune

From Wiki:

"A bootleg recording is an audio or video recording of a performance that was not officially released by the artist or under other legal authority."

No idea whether there are sound issues with this release, but to call it a bootleg is nonsense.

Just received my copy - other than being a cheapo pressing (slightly off center & some crackle on the start & end) it sounds great. RA could have done a more hi-fi pressing for this one but for GBP 6 it's hard to complain.

I think you've summed it up nicely skunkride.

Agree Skunkride- good record for that price.
And yes Dan-I, the B-side is even better. Serious bass!

sounds like a dennis bovell production

sounds like a dennis bovell production

It's not it's a self production. Sounds almost identical to John Peel session.

Hey...It sound great, and fully licensed. Cant explain your critics, Mr Critic. Show a little respect.

B side sounds a lot Steel Pulse to me. Great tune I didnt know.
