Description
Artist: SCIENTIST
Title: “Scientist Encounters Pac-Man”
Label: GREENSLEEVES ~ # GREL 46. Original stereo pressing.
Year: 1982.
NOTE: This album came from the extensive personal collection of the former owner of a chain of retail music stores who retired from the business in the early 80’s. The albums have been stored virtually untouched and unplayed since that time in a climate controlled, non-smoking environment. We are in the process of offering many investment grade coloured vinyl LPs, promos, sealed LPs, and other rare collector items from this collection in the coming months. If you desire MINT albums, you will not be disappointed.
Album is STILL SEALED in factory shrink-wrap, as clean as can be found. The shrink-wrap is sparkling clean and fully intact. Upper right corner is clipped to indicate this was originally sold as a cut-out. A gorgeous sealed copy!
Review:
“One of two fine LPs Scientist cut from Linval Thompson rhythms -- the other is the even more impressive Scientist Meets the Space Invaders -- Scientist Encounters Pac Man finds the onetime King Tubby protégé forging his patented minimal sound, a landscape resplendent with steely piano, depth-charge drums, and futuristic dub effects. Scientist also delivers one of his most progressive mixes here, deconstructing the originals down to their skeletal base and adding just the right amount of mixing board-generated Echoplex and reverb. And helping out considerably with the heady proceedings, the early dancehall period's greatest band, the Roots Radics, lay down the brutal rhythms and subtle keyboard and guitar interjections. Plus, one gets another of artist Tony McDermott's spectacular comic-book covers, this time depicting all of the studio Svengali's horror-movie nemeses from album jackets past (vampires, zombies, Frankenstein, those space invaders, and now the computer game's star of the day, Pac Man). A mind-warping yet eminently enjoyable way to check into dub central.”
