The tracks 1, 3, 7 and 10 have been used in the legendary dub album Scientist "Rids The World Of The Evil Curse Of The Vampires" (1981)!
The success of "Righteous Of The Conqueror" led to producer Henry "Junjo" Lawes reassembling the protagonists again at Channel One the following year 1981. The resulting "Michael Prophet / Gunman" album proved even more popular and the release of "Gunman" as a twelve-inch single gave Michael Prophet his biggest hit and signature tune. Michael went on to cut three more classic "Junjo" produced Greensleeves discos and these tracks have been added to this re-mastered edition including 4 additional 12" mixes released on CD for the very first time.
