First issued in 1973, "Like A Bolt" is today widely regarded as one of the finest albums to showcase the inestimable talents of Jamaican singing legend, John Holt.

Over the years since, it has become one of the most sought-after long players from the early 1970s, yet has remained unavailable on CD for almost 20 yearsNow, the album is finally available once more, with the original track-listing augmented by the remainder of Holt's solo work for the Duke, so bringing together numerous major reggae hits alongside long-lost obscurities, which include a 12" mix of 'Ali Baba', that makes it's CD debut
