  • Repressed! An equal gem next to Dancehall Style, Bullwackie again comes through with the perfect production value to match his vocalist. The musician's line-up appears to be completely different on these two LPs but it sounds like they cut them in the same session. The format is the same, three songs to each side- each song filled with a rich tone of overdubs followed immediately by the heavy dub version. Wayne Jarrett's voice floats somewhere above the rhythm, most effectively on the incredible "Bubble Up." Clive Hunt shares production credits and drops in on flute for a few tracks like this wicked version of the classic "Holy Mount Zion." The extended dubs lay perfectly with the vocals, sometimes outshining. Here's a taste of the transition on "Brimstone And Fire," horns come in strong followed by mad bottle clank. I'm just happy to see re-issues of these after so many years of searching. Includes "Every Tongue Shall Tell," "Magic In The Air," and "Darling Your Eyes." Great front + back picture covers, excellent quality vinyl.

    • black vinyl pressing
    • original release year: 1982
    • music label: Wackie's 2026
