Romeo, Max & The Upsetters - War Ina Babylon

Originally released in 1976, 'War Ina Babylon' was recorded with the legendary Upsetters and produced by Lee "Scratch" Perry at the Black Ark studio. This album is a part of what is referred to as Lee "Scratch" Perry-produced Black Ark "holy trinity" (along with The Heptones 'Party Time' & Junior Murvin's 'Police & Thieves').

Includes the classics 'One Step Forward', 'Chase The Devil' (as sampled by the Prodigy for 'Out of Space'), and the title track itself 'War Ina Babylon'. 

Widely regarded as Romeo's finest work, the album is a landmark of roots reggae, combining political commentary, Rastafarian themes and Perry's distinctive dub production style. Released on Island Records, the album reflects the social and political turmoil of mid-1970s Jamaica, addressing poverty, violence, and oppression.

The record features nine tracks, including some of Romeo's most enduring songs such as "One Step Forward," "War Ina Babylon," and "Chase the Devil,".

War Ina Babylon is often grouped with other Black Ark productions as part of a celebrated trio of reggae albums from the era, and it remains one of the most acclaimed and influential releases in the genre.
