Peter Tosh's debut solo album, originally released in 1976, stands as one of the most important records in reggae history. This Music On Vinyl reissue presents the album across two 180g audiophile-grade LPs, with remastered audio and bonus dub versions that were previously available only on extremely limited Jamaican dub plates.
The Album
Recorded after Tosh's departure from The Wailers, Legalize It established him as a formidable solo artist and an uncompromising voice for social change. The title track became an anthem that transcended reggae, while tracks such as "Burial", "Why Must I Cry" (co-written with Bob Marley), and "Igziabeher (Let Jah Be Praised)" showcase the breadth of Tosh's songwriting — from militant protest to spiritual meditation.
This Pressing
This Music On Vinyl edition is pressed on 180g vinyl for improved audio fidelity and reduced surface noise. The second LP features rare dub versions of key album tracks, adding significant value for collectors and reggae enthusiasts. The package includes two printed colour inserts with photographs and full lyrics.
