And what odd credits. 'All tracks written by S Cale (presumably Stranger Cole) and D Reid'? Definitely not! And is Jubal some sort of reference to Coxsone Dodd/Studio One? I wouldn't have said the Jackie Edwards tracks were a good fit with the others either. But it's an interesting set nonetheless, although whether they were all dubbed from disc or master tape is another matter (but having them in stereo won't have helped).
