'Linval presents Space Invaders' is actually a reissue of 'Linval Thompson Meets The Space Invaders', a 10 track dub album from 1981. Both the title of that album as well as the corresponding graphics by Tony McDermott were of course an homage to 'Space Invaders', the meanwhile iconic computer game by Tomohiro Nishikado from 1978. For this reissue Greensleeves added a second disc containing 10 vocal cuts over the same riddims (Rainy Days, I'm A Dreadlocks, Catch Dem Jah Jah, Who Da, Mr. Bassie, Pick Up The Pieces, Dreadlocks Nah Run and Kiss Somebody) by artists like Sammy Dread, Wayne Wade, Wailing Souls, Pappa Tullo, Johnny Osbourne and, of course, Linval Thompson himself.
