Reconstruction (Max Romeo album)

Reconstruction is an album by Max Romeo, released in 1977.

Shortly after recording critically acclaimed War Ina Babylon, Max Romeo broke up with his producer Lee "Scratch" Perry on professional ground, what prompted him to self-produce his next album. Reconstruction did not match the success of its predecessor and in 1978 Romeo left Jamaica.
