    Nigerian Reggae holy grail reissued for the first time here courtesy of Superfly Records. This LP was originally recorded in London with members of the Cool Notes in 1983. Across six massive cuts, Chief Checker created a totally unique sound mixing Dub with elements of Juju. The result lands somewhere between Cedric Brooks and Sunny Ade. Highy recommended!
