Radics at their peak, righteous chanting from Far I, ridiculous cover.
Fling away your gun, make it done. -

Edited 2 years agoIt appears several tracks were issued as part of the 'Dubwise' compilation release from Virgin Records. Tracks 1-6 of that release appear to actually be 1) Throw Away Your Gun, 2) Buds Bush, 4) Lovers Frock, 6) Farm Drunk, 10) Jah Do That, 9) Mighty Ruler from this release. Comparison was done by the 'Tribute to Prince Far I' website. Many of the other tracks on 'Dubwise' are sourced from Cry Tuff Dub Encounter Pt. 2, but with screwed up track titles yet again. That release also has not been reissued. So it looks like 'Dubwise' is the only CD source for much of this material. https://www.discogs.sie.com/master/175709-Prince-Far-I-Dubwise

PRE label , part of Charisma , does noet exist anymore . Might it be areason that there is no reissue ?
It looks like , the way it is , that it , very un-fortunately ofcourse , might never be re-released . -

Think the greatest album ever - I have listened to this maybe over a 1,000 times in my lifetime. Back in the day when records like this weren't so rare and expensive I used to buy copies whenever I could - I have 9 or 10 copies of this. Sounds crazy, but... I got my first copy on the way home from school in 1980 - Bradley's Records Manchester - and that was it for me. A Far I devotee ever since - I have maybe 150 records of his. He was very prolific.
