I Roy / Keith Hudson – Jah Lion Jungle / Torch Of Freedom (7")

I-Roy / Keith Hudson – Jah Lion Jungle / Torch Of Freedom

This dynamic 7″ brings together two reggae innovators on a single, roots-fired disc. I-Roy toasts up a scorcher on “Jah Lion Jungle”, lighting up the A-side with vivid deejay energy and spiritual defiance, laid atop Keith Hudson’s iconic “Class & Subject” riddim. Flip it over for Hudson’s own “Torch Of Freedom”—a smoldering deep cut from his 1975 album of the same name—featuring signature vocals and a heavyweight rhythm section. Pressed in Jamaica on transparent yellow vinyl, this 2008 repress captures a key moment in the evolution of dubwise reggae.
