The cover of this maxi-single shows a ripped portrait of Bob Marley, filtered so heavily that he looks centuries old and about to fall apart. Some more upbeat liveliness is added with a confetti of wavy lines in the default rastafari color palette. The stacked capitals used for the artist name and title are set in Tzigane.

The B-side of this release is mentioned only on the back cover: “Lama Lava”, as performed by Augusto Pablo. Both songs were produced by Lee Perry.
