Heart Of The Congos

Ostateczna wersja arcydzieła Roots Reggae z lat 1977-2017 wydana jako 3LP deluxe z 2017 r.

Ten nowy zestaw 3LP-Vinyl oparty jest na bardziej znanym mixie z reedycji Blood & Fire, a także dubach, miksach disco, wersjach siedmio- i dwunastocalowej, a także z "Do not Blame It On I" (przeoczony poprzednio niepublikowany utwór).
