Most Wanted: Classic Cuts 1978-1984

Recorded
1979-1984
Released

This fine Greensleeves compilation brings together 12” discomix versions of classic Wailing Souls singles from when the band was at the peak of its powers around the turn of the 1980s. Most of these tracks were recorded with producer Henry “Junjo” Lawes, though there is also a handful of tunes they made with Jo Jo Hookim and Linval Thompson; most are backed by the mighty Roots Radics band. These extended versions append dub remixes to the original vocal tracks, resulting in extra-long renditions.
