Scarce one. I don't have it, but I have the other one LP on the Rosso label: Lambert Douglas "Living Man".

It's a good LP, not my fav tho'. Rockers style with sweet vocal.

Hi Earth&Stone,
Never had the occasion to listen to the whole LP but have 2 rosso 7" of them.
What I suggest you is to look under
http://www.strictly-vibes.com/the-dingl ... ht=dingles
There are two more others!

Like Wareika said, as they were linked with rosso as Lambert Douglas, the riddims are similar and the vocals also.

But is this LP really on rosso? cause no mention of it on this website

All the best

It was released in 1978 and is on the Rosso-label according to a friend who bought it when it was released..

I have since this post was done managed to get a copy of the Dingles LP and can really recommend it to anyone that is a fan of the rockers sound. Some great melodies with brilliant backing. My favourite song of the bunch is the song I, I, I which is a beautiful anthem if I ever heard one. Same sound as the Lambert Douglas LP mentioned earlier.

I uploaded the information to discogs:

The Dingles' LP is very nice and pleasant,not mind blowing but a good solid record! Nice harmonies and a good line up of musicians with Sly, Ranchie, Duggie, etc......
