Excellent collection of Prince Buster tunes that includes such treasures as the staggering 7 Wonders Of The World, the amusing Drunkards Psalm, the brilliant Shepherd Beng wherein Buster employs a "gypsy" man to cast a spell to bring his woman back to him from the clutches of he "cousin".  The Gypsy played by one Tony King crooning a snatch of Curtis Mayfield's Gypsy Woman during the proceedings which includes some hilarious old school pre-decimal money exchanges.  It's A Fire. a cut to Buster's Java, and an instrumental cut to Buster's Sata Masa Gana, mingled with some fire and brimstone preachin' on tracks like African Affair, Black Power, Message To The Black Man and White Man's Heaven.  Essential.
