Healing of the Nation (feat. Inner Circle)

Jacob Miller · 1978
Recording

It was recorded in Jamaica during the 1978 Top Ranking sessions, with Jacob Miller backed by Inner Circle. The album release credits place the recordings at Harry J's Recording Studio and Channel One Recording Studio, with engineering by Maximillian, Sylvan Morris, and Errol Thompson. The track appeared on the 1978 Wanted LP, one of the Top Ranking albums that showcased Miller as Inner Circle’s frontman. It sat alongside other core cuts from the same period and helped define the group’s late-1970s roots-reggae output. The song stayed in circulation through later compilations and dub versions, including releases built around the same riddim. Its continued reuse kept it among the best-known Jacob Miller/Inner Circle titles from the era.
