Ten songs, five to a side.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCulture cut the album in 1976 at Joe Gibbs Recording Studio in Kingston. Gibbs and Errol Thompson produced it, working as they usually did under the name the Mighty Two, and it came out in 1977 on Gibbs' own label. VP lists Sly Dunbar, Robbie Shakespeare and the saxophonist Tommy McCook among the players.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe title points at 7 July 1977. The album's liner notes describe Joseph Hill having a vision on a bus of 1977 as a year of judgment, and then the day itself: \"a hush descended on Kingston; many people did not go outdoors, shops closed, an air of foreboding and expectation filled the city.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe record has been reissued many times since. Shanachie released a US edition in 1988 with new cover art and the running order rearranged, the last five songs moved to the front. A fortieth-anniversary edition followed in 2017 with a second disc of remixes and dub versions and sleeve notes by Don Letts. In 2025 Mojo placed it sixteenth in a list of the fifty best reggae albums.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTracklist\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSide A\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCalling Rasta Far I\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eI'm Alone in the Wilderness\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePirate Days\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo Sevens Clash\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eI'm Not Ashamed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSide B\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col start=\"6\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGet Ready to Ride the Lion to Zion\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlack Starliner Must Come\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJah Pretty Face\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSee Them a Come\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNatty Dread Taking Over\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-bt-autogen\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 054645417815\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLabel:\u003c\/strong\u003e Vp Records\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRelease Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.25.11\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e Vinyl\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"17 North Parade","offers":[{"title":"NEW \/ NEW","offer_id":67505640538270,"sku":"EVP-E17057D8-NEW-NEW-NONE0000","price":28.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0718\/8801\/1422\/files\/CultureL__61525.1708544512.webp?v=1792764137","url":"https:\/\/evergreenvinyl.com\/products\/culture-two-sevens-clash-black-vinyl","provider":"Evergreen Vinyl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
