Full title on sleeve: Linval Presents Space Invaders

6 panel cardboard sleeve with 7 page booklet glued in and separate cardboard inner sleeves.

Originally released in 1981. This is a remaster of Scientist Meets The Space Invaders with the tracks on Disc 2 being the corresponding vocal cuts to the dub versions on Disc 1. Most of the tracks on Disc 2 are extended 'disco style' vocal/dub or DJ versions (compared to 2LP reissue Space Invaders).

The original producer (Linval Thompson) is listed as the artist 'presenting' this 2CD set. Therefore, this release contains revisionist artwork, not mentioning or depicting Scientist, except for his role as mixer at King Tubby's. Moreover, the artwork by Tony McDermott is not credited on the cover (though mentioned in the liner notes).

Durations not on product.

[Sticker on shrink-wrap]
Re-mastered with Bonus Disc of original vocal cuts

[Back cover]
Backed by The Roots Radics Band
Rhythm tracks laid at Channel One Recording Studio by Maxie, Barnabas & Crucial Bunny
Mixed by Scientist at King Tubby's
