This is THE classic British reggae album and wholly worthy of 5*. It includes BBC session tracks that I've not heard before. But what I would have liked to see/hear was the BBC 'Sight & Sound' In Concert (TV and radio broadcast) from the year of release - the band make a joyous noise and shows how the studio tracks translated to the stage (in fact, even better!). The concert was only about 30 mins long (and shared with XTC - which has been released!). Otherwise what we have here are added numerous dubs of the album tracks. You need to get this issue as it has been remastered - my previous copy of about 20 years ago - is disappointing sound wise. I've never seen this 2CD in a UK CD store, and most on-line sellers are still selling the original CD issue - which was mid-price - at top dollar. It seems mighty odd that my 2CD reissue was manufactured in the UK, exported to the US and re-imported (with free postage!) and cost less than UK based sellers! Figure out. To me, it should be out at £9.99 and I'm sure many more people would buy it and spread the word of this unheralded masterpiece. So, my old tape of Steel Pulse live at the BBC still awaits official release...Read full review

I bought this album for brother who has been a big fan of Steel Pulse since the beginning of their career. He cannot stop thanking me! so whilst I have not listened to it myself - he is praising it greatly.
