The term All Stars was often used in the Jamaican scene to describe
collaborations. Leggo was also a Jamaican record label crops up quite a  few
times in a Peel Wiki search.

Yeah, as u can see from the link below, the "band" name is absent from both
the cover and label - how odd ! I must say, I prefer the name
"Revolutionaries" to "Ossie All Stars" - the latter sounds like an AC/DC,
Midnight Oil and Men At Work tribute band !

Roots-archives.com (via google) lists the personnel as Leggo Beast and The
Ossie All-stars, with the Revolutionaries as "backing band" - seems like a
lotta people !
