Artists

Album Info

Release Date: 1972

Labels: Straker's Records, Strakers Recording

Melody's first album for 9 years.

Although considered part of his soca period, it is not in this style, which was invented by Lord Shorty a year after the album's release.

The album is written as Lord Melody Say Mas Is Devil Power on the cover.

He had recorded a number of singles and compilation tracks in the years between, but never a full album. He had been busy working for Harry Belafonte in New York, and was making enough money doing that.

The track Going Home is a rewritten version of "My Father's Kingdom" from his album "Mas Is Devil Power".

The song Melvina is misspelt Meluina on the back of the LP.
