MOUNT ZION WE ARE GOING * DESMOND DEKKER AND THE FOUR ACES * ISLAND 224 * UK
Punchy Ska track, produced by Leslie Kong, with Desmond Dekker, backed by a vocal quartet, giving us a stark warning to join him, as he legs it to Mount Zion, "before it's too late". The name Zion was originally used for the mountain on which Jerusalem was built, Mount Zion is the designated site of the Last Supper and the place where the supposedly Virgin Mary died. The name first appears in the story of David's capture of Jerusalem, which was called the stronghold of Zion.
