The hypest early-80s track of all time, hands down. From the shouting vocal intro with lazers and gun shots to the heavily effected rhythm and Ranking Dread's super-inspired vocal, this song just kills it all over the place. So much so that the scratchy pressing here don't mean a damn thing. Pressed on Sugar Minott's Black Roots label, with the dub to one of Sugar's mellow lovers tunes from the same era on the flip. Grab now, cause these are a hard come up on 7.
