So true. And of course, let's not forget that their manager Clarence Baker was charged with assaulting a policeman's truncheon with his fractured skull.

I was 16 years old when I heard this back in 1979, beautiful stuff.
Proud to say The Tyson Brothers are from St. Kitts And Nevis....Great contribution to Reggae...
This band never got the recognition they deserved.

No matter what artist, Peel sessions sound the best. What is that technology?
Good question, this session sounds tight. I was browsing for Psyche by Killing Joke the other week and the best version is definitely a Peel session.
BBC studio, sound engineers, and producer. Old-school class and quality, the best.
And don't forget,JOHN PEEL educated generations across the globe with flawless musical taste,always open to new sounds.
peel was part of it
sinner men..where they going to run
special branch persecuted Misty for no reason...it is still going on..shame on them all
Watched Misty in Roots at the U.E.A in Norwich in the 80,s what a talented band thank you for your brilliant music .
Their manager Clarence was even arrested whilst in hospital with a fractured skull inflicted by the oh so nice boys in blue.
@@TheSpikehere I met Clarence ...nice guy
