strung-out masterpiece of nyabinghi (Rastafarian spiritual music), Peace
And Love. Originally released in 1974 on Wild Flower, it was repressed
in Æ75 by Trojan with different artwork. Ainley and Ernestus have had
the tracks remastered at Abbey Road for the Dug Out edition, the vinyl
housed in ôold-school, hand-assembled sleevesö with original cover art
restored. The album is available on CD and digital as well as vinyl.
Well let Honest Jon's explain the unique appeal of the record:
Led by Ras Michael over four extended excursions, the music is organic,
sublime and expansive, grounation-drums and bass heavy (with no rhythm
guitar, rather Willie Lindo brilliantly improvising a kind of dazed,
harmolodic blues). Lloyd Charmers and Federal engineer George Raymond
stayed up all night after the session, to mix the recording, opening out
the enraptured mood into echoing space, adding sparse, startling effects
to the keyboards. At no cost to its deep spirituality, this is the
closest reggae comes to psychedelia.ö
