A note on sound restoration: Due to the age and condition of the original source material, there is a still certain amount of evident surface and tape noise on some of the tracks. We made a conscious decision not to attempt to digitally remove such minor sonic imperfections, as this would have resulted in a serious reduction in warmth and audio dynamics. The whole album was effectively mastered with valve stages and analogue tape, without the use of computers or other digital technology, resulting, we feel, in a superior sound that is closest to what the producers and artists originally intended.

Auralux Recordings wishes to thank King Jammy and Mama Iris, the ever courteous Catherine, Tonto Irie and all at Jammy's HQ in Jamaica plus Ken 'Fatman' Gordon and Dave Hendley in the UK and the French Connection: Bernard Warin, Manu Barron, Laurent Sabatier and all at La Condition Publique in Roubaix.
