It's Winston McAnnuff.

Keith Poppin - Take it easy with six, and, 'Antrax riddim from 2006' but it might not be your cuppa.

"The Great Roy Shirley" (Micron Canada 12")saw Shirley re-record many of his hits in a medley stylee......singer Carol Brown also recorded a medley side on her LP "Something Special" (also on Micron Canada).

And of course Owen Grey had a very successful series of "hit after hit after hit after hit after hit...." LPs in the early 80's, were he crammed in enough song snippets to choke a bear.

The Clarendonians did "All In One Medley" around 1971 released in the UK on Green Door. Both sides are in the medley fashion, featuring tunes like "Rudie Gone A Jail", "What a Bam Bam" and others. Nice release....

Freddie McKay did one at Channel One around '76/'77 with tunes like "Hooligan" and cant remember the others...
