Re: 5 songs that have blown your mind

Actually I am really not sure about that. I love the Roots Radics. It is hard to say. The version I heard first was the sly and robbie version.

Ah i do prefer the earlier version of Danger Zone - though not quite sure who the backing band is..yeah most probably some of the Roots Radics guys...with better horn riffs too - check it out.

Sly & Robbies production is cool though!

The Ethiopians- Mek You Go On So
