I think this must be my favourite Bunny Wailer album.

Bingi Bunny and Steely but also guest starring Sly and
Robbie, K.Sterling, Dwight Pinckney and the horns by
Headly Bennett, Dean Fraser and R.Robinson. Six
very strong songs by master Bunny Wailer and
one written by Curtis Mayfield, ‘Another Dance’.
Recorded at Harry J. and Channel One studio’s.

Thanks for this download. I was looking to buy this album on CD but it looks like it was never released as a CD. I have the Shanachie CD Rootsman Skanking which contains all these songs, but not in their extended versions like this one.

To me its one of the greatest reggae albums of all time, purists tend to dismiss it because of the light subject matter, but when it came out, it rocked everywhere, even in early 80s Zimbabwe where its mood matched that of the recently independent country.
