The Revolutionaries - I Came, I Saw, I Conquered

The Revolutionaries - I Came, I Saw, I Conquered - JJCD 029 (original release 1980)

Here is another of those albums in which when I saw on CD immediately thought, "I remember this cover!". Originally released in the early 80s, this a relatively indicative dub album of the period. Produced by Joseph Hoo Kim of Channel One, this CD contains some dancehall dub workouts with The Revolutionaries providing backing tracks. In addition to Sly & Robbie, Rad Bryan and Ranchie are on guitar, and Ansell Collins and Robbie Lynn on keyboards and synthesizer, respectively. The dubs are mixed by Ernest Hoo Kim, Barnabas and Maxie.

Among the vocal tracks used for dubs are songs by Barrington Levy and Junior Delgado. My only complaint of this reissue is that it seems that the volume is low. I had to crank up the volume on my unit in order to here it properly. Aside from that, this is a decent set. Maybe not a must have but if you find it cheap or need to fill out the collection, then go for it.
