More in the set of official releases of the classic early eighties dub albums produced by Linval Thompson and Junjo Lawes featuring King Tubby's young engineer Scientist at the controls, in this case trading round for round with Prince Jammy's. These albums have been unavailable in official form for many, many years, here they are released as double vinyl albums; the original Big Showdown dub on disc one, ingeniously coupled with a new compilation of all the vocal counterparts, in this case from Barrington Levy, to the dub tracks on disc two. Scientist and Jammy's mix the Roots Radics backing tracks into dubwise oblivion, and the combination of the vocals is a masterstroke. Comes complete with a big fold-out poster!
