King Tubby Meets Vivian Jackson

King Tubby Meets Vivian Jackson (also known as Chant Down Babylon and Walls Of Jerusalem) is the second album by Jamaican musician Yabby You (Vivian Jackson), in collaboration with Jamaican sound engineer and dub music pioneer King Tubby.

The first half of King Tubby Meets Vivian Jackson is tracks by Yabby You with his backing band The Prophets, some of which had previously been released as 45s. The second half is dub versions of those tracks, made by King Tubby.

Background and release
In 1975 Jackson and his vocal group The Prophets released their debut album Conquering Lion, which was popular in Jamaica and the UK.

Walls of Jerusalem was first released in Jamaica in 1976, and was initially sold as an LP in a blank sleeve. Jackson later reissued the album on his label Prophet under the title King Tubby Meets Vivian Jackson. In 1977 record label Nationwide released the album in the UK as Chant Down Babylon, with alternate cover art and track names, and erroneously credited it to "Yabby Youth".

In 2019 Pressure Sounds reissued the album as Walls of Jerusalem on LP and CD. The reissue included a second disc of studio outtakes and dub versions.

Critical reception
Jo-Ann Greene of AllMusic wrote that title track "Walls Of Jerusalem" is a "stellar single, a major hit, and a song that helps make You's own religious beliefs clear." The Rough Guide to Reggae said that "tracks like "Walls Of Jerusalem" and "Chant Down Babylon" are flawless, while the dubs are fully the equal of those on the classic Prophecy Of Dub set from Tubby."

David Katz described the track "Chant Down Babylon Kingdom" as "one of Yabby’s most forceful releases". He also described the album, and its follow-up Deliver Me From My Enemies, as being of the same standard as Yabby You's debut, and as "containing works of fearsome religious and political retribution, interspersed with the occasional love song."
