From Wikipedia:

East of the River Nile is a 1977 reggae studio album by Jamaican musician Augustus Pablo. An instrumental album, East of the River Nile showcases Pablo’s skill on the melodica, and various other keyboards. Also featured are studio musicians famous as members of the Wailers, Bob Marley’s backing band.

The cover artwork is by Orville “Bagga” Case, with a photography by Walsh’s Photo Studio. Chances are that the typography was accomplished with dry transfer lettering from Formatt. That company had an adaptation of Solemnis and also carried Wexford in a version called Diplomat Bold.
