This is Dennis Brown at his absolute best. Every song on this album is a work of art and will without a doubt stand the test of time. The hit "Revolution", from which the album derives its name, is a masterpiece and is still relevant today some 40 years after its original release. Is also features the massive hit "Promised Land"

Other worthy song mentions from the album is "Armagedon" a cover of Bunny Wailer's "Armagideon" and "Have you ever been in love"

Dennis Emmanuel Brown (1 February 1957 – 1 July 1999) was a Jamaican reggae singer. During his prolific career, which began in the late 1960s when he was aged eleven, he recorded more than 75 albums and was one of the major stars of lovers rock, a subgenre of reggae focused around love songs. Bob Marley cited Brown as his favourite singer, dubbing him "The Crown Prince of Reggae", and Brown would prove influential on future generations of reggae singers.

Sly and Robbie (The duo's backing this track) were a prolific Jamaican rhythm section and production duo, associated primarily with the reggae and dub genres. Drummer Sly Dunbar and bassist Robbie Shakespeare teamed up in the mid-1970s after establishing themselves separately in Jamaica as professional musicians. Shakespeare died in December 2021 following kidney surgery.
They are rumored to have made and contributed to over 200.000 recordings, which i personally find very doubtful, but they definately contributed to many thousands of recordings.
