Backed with some bumptious ska, led by Val Bennett.

Black Ark recording.

Nine minutes of Tuff Gong jazzy dread, set to the b-line Bunny copped for Amagideon.

Limber, improvisational twelve-minute version, never before released, complete with an instrumental cut.

First time out for this plaintive roots, recorded at Tuff Gong in 1979, and featuring Wailer Al Anderson’s fine acoustic guitar playing.

Startling digi do-over of Yabby You’s great Jesus Dread rhythm, with a driving, tumping dub and sermonizing keys. Mis-credited to Phillip Fraser on the label.

Tough, late-80s UK steppers, with a Mad Professor dub.

Upful, true-born-scuffler sing-jaying over a crisp, late-eighties Mansfield McClean rhythm.
Life is for living, but watch your step; ‘dollars weak but life is sweet’.

Pious sex-pol, on a tuff Billie Jean lick. ‘When you come home, a next man asleep in your pyjamas… and then you charge fi murder, Jah Jah know. The man them a worries but the woman them a problem.’
