      Music hath charms. Hi dtod, respects to yr Ma (and her old chum), it was, is, and will remain one of the best bits of work on the planet. The B-side was pretty good too, ditto the album, some of sound's solid pleasures in any long human life. Ever onward, truly brilliant, cheers.

      since the early 70's.
      this explains the influence of reggae on punk, influence on the Clash, and The Police

    I've got a much more roots version of this on a Joe Gibbs cd, him and Erroll must have done a different mix as this is the well known version. Also, check out Joy White's version of Tribulation, possibly my favourite version of the track and dare I say even better than Dennis Brown which is some claim but...

    Dude whenever you do reaction always try to find the original version and not a concert version
