In the notes to this album Owen Knibbs says "Thirty-seven years between the first song and my album release, it's been a long journey". That first song was Juggling, originally released in Jamaica on his friend Leon Virgo's Virgo label in 1987. The tune eventually became a big tune amongst sound system fans in Europe and was reissued in 2015 through France's Jamwax label. Seven years later, here is Owen's debut LP in combination with Eric Black-Catalog, a showcase set of sorts with six vocals and four dubs including cuts to Glen Brown's Realise rhythm (Down Here) and Dennis Brown's Don't Want To Be No General (Rude Boy). Knibbs' voice intact and the music matching.
