    VP Records

    LP

    £27

    The first reissue since the initial release in 1974 this underground collectible from producer Bunny Lee features early ’70 productions with Max Romeo. It was remastered from the original reel-to-reel tape, and it has extensive liner notes and a rarely seen photo from Peter Simon.
