yes that's the best, but hardly fits in a Burning Sounds reissue program.

Strangely though Mark, BS have reissued Rock A Dub album which wasn't on the BS label......never say never:)

Wow, Burning Sounds are releasing Phil Pratt "Star Wars Dub" and Well Pleased and Satisfied "Love Train and Give Thanks and Praise" as a twofer

I have to say thought that with Pressure Sounds licensing from Phil Pratt and Bobby Kalphat they have missed a trick by not putting out the Phil Pratt "Star Wars Dub" and also Bobby Kalphats "War is on Dubwise", especially with extra tracks they would have been certain must haves.

It's well timed, but I wonder if they will get in trouble with that title and cover...? I guess no one cared or even noticed back in the day, but they might now, and have objections.

Yeah, my thought exactly. The Raiders of the Lost Dub album suffered that fate for that very reason.

Also these two due on Burning Sounds:

It seems that VP/Greensleeves have found a way to work around their dispute with Scientist:

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Linval-Presents ... B01C789UXA

Includes vocal counterparts as bonus, I expect there are more of them to come.

Those sneaky bastards! As a big Scientist fan I'm kinda pissed. But there are a lot of people looking for these records for a long time. So at least they're happy now.

Edit: By the way... the songlist states " 9. Dreadlocks Nah Run - Linval Thompson" Did he also sing the tune himself? Or is this a misprint, since it's sung by Barry Brown?

Looks like all the Scientist Greensleeves albums are getting the 2CD reissue format as Junjo (or Linval) presents:

- Pac Man
- Showdown (w/Jammy)
- Space Invaders
- World Cup
- Vampires
- Heavyweight

Am pleased they are getting reissued with the original tracks as second disc, despite Scientists name being removed from the title.
