Max Romeo "Revelation Time"

LP (NEW) - Vinyl, 17 North Parade, US, 2020, VPRL4222, 054645422215, Remastered, Reissue

Max Romeo’s 1975 album Revelation Time (also released internationally as Open the Iron Gate) is a foundational roots reggae record that sits just below his 1976 commercial breakthrough, War Ina Babylon, in terms of global recognition, but equals it in musical substance. Recorded during a period of intense political and social upheaval in Jamaica, the album marks Romeo's definitive transition from the suggestive "slackness" of his early career hits like "Wet Dream" into serious, spiritually driven Rastafarian themes.
