One of my favorite reggae tunes ever now unironically relevant again.

Love this song! First heard it in the 80s when I was a teenager. What a blast to hear it again after 37 years.

[@jabulanimakhanya5099]

This is poetic reggae at its best.

First heard this in the early 80s....I was amazed....The lyrics needed no interpretation reflecting the rather turbulent atmosphere of the Cold War era (East vs West, Reagan vs Andropov)

[@olivszf7837]

What a backing D.B.D.B 😊

[@katoness]

My older brother had this on vinyl when it first came out. Always remember this song from it. Good memories.

Yesterday was Putin’s birthday which someone celebrated by blowing up the Crimea bridge. And somehow…just somehow….I thought of this. Man JKL was such a huge part of my early teens and what fantastic recording. That bass tone, the dub-tone horns, the muted accent guitar.

In the cartoon above, replace "CCCP" with "Russia", "China", "North Korea" or "Iran" and it applies today.
