Dadawah
Peace And Love - Wadadasow
Wild Flower
XYZ 004
1974
Country of Release: Jamaica
Overview
A true roots reggae masterpiece and widely regarded as Dadawah’s (Ras Michael’s) defining work. “Peace And Love - Wadadasow” is a deeply spiritual and hypnotic album built around Nyabinghi rhythms, heavy bass, and atmospheric production. Original pressings on the Wild Flower label are scarce and increasingly difficult to find, particularly in strong condition. A genuinely rare and highly collectible record that is essential for serious reggae collectors.
Sleeve
The sleeve is in excellent condition overall with strong, clear artwork and very good structure. There is some light ringwear visible but nothing excessive, and it still presents very well. The spine is intact and sharp. Corners show very minor wear consistent with age. There are small, faint initials on the rear. The sleeve has a matt finish.
Grading: Excellent (EX)
Inner Sleeve
Plain white inner sleeve in great condition with minimal signs of handling. Clean and fully intact.
Vinyl
The vinyl is in excellent condition with a deep, glossy sheen. There are some very faint hairlines visible under light, but nothing significant. A very well-kept copy.
Vinyl Audio
Playback is strong and immersive, exactly how this record should sound. The bass is deep and warm, with excellent presence, while the percussion and vocals come through with great clarity and definition. There is only very light background noise in quieter passages, which is typical for an original pressing of this age, but it never overpowers the music. No skips or jumps. A very enjoyable listen throughout and a strong playing copy.
Grading: Excellent (EX)
Record Labels
Labels are clean and well presented with no damage or visible spindle.
Grading: Excellent (EX)
Postage
Your record will be carefully packed in a professional record mailer with stiffeners. The vinyl will be removed from the sleeve to prevent seam splits during transit. Fast dispatch. Worldwide shipping available.
