"I haven't listened to this tape (yes, a tape!) in over 25 years! I dug it out of my tape collection (which I thankfully kept) this evening, it sounds as good, if not better now, than it did all those years ago. At that time it got a lot of play in the car stereo!

"10 years after "The Narcotic Story", Oxbow has not aged, even though the guys are fifty years old.

"Own: UK pressing from 1978 called Forward On To Zion (aka "satta"), Different records. Exemplary mid-tempo Reggae, beautifully done all round, no stretching out. Boys look sharp on the back cover. Title-cut ftw."  Reply

"This was an unexpected joy. Even though there's nothing that really makes it different or musically perfect, it just hits all the marks. I love this album and rate it as their best. It's loaded with great tracks right through. Massively under rated in my opinion"  Reply
