About This Item
Vinyl LP pressing. Includes digital download. First time available on vinyl since 1982. Psychotic Jonkanoo was the sixth Creation Rebel album in three years, originally licensed to the post-punk oriented Glaswegian tag Statik. Another solid set of killer dub, albeit less instrumentally inclined than their previous efforts and more focussed on militant-style conscious chants. Bandleader Crucial Tony was aided on the vocal front by harmonies from other group members, in a style reminiscent of Black Uhuru, plus the occasional guest such as John Lydon of the S*x Pistols and Public Image Limited providing backing harmony (!) on InchMother Don't CryInch, and the legendary Deadly Headley Bennett adding saxophone to the opening track. Album Tracks 1. The Dope 2. African Space 3. Chatti Mouth 4. Threat to Creation 5. Highest Degree 6. Mother Don't Cry 7. Yuk Up 8. Drum Talk
