To be accurate, Youth Man - Augustus Pablo is more likely by Glen Brown, or did I miss something ?

You are right Nicolas. In fact, there's plenty more releases that need some additional info. Some releases where only distributed by Wackies. All this info will be added at some point. ;)

@ Ron

Hi Ron, can you please tell me what connection is between the Wackies label and the Jah Marcus/Words In Dub record?

That record should not be in the album list as such. Though i do think there's a connection with Wackie's.
The track *Jah Say Love* sounds very Wackie-like; US style label; US style cover ...

As for the Wackie discography, I am thinking of listing other US/CAN labels/releases (like HC&F and Munchie Jackson productions), because they have a similar sound and maybe Wackie influences.
For example Apple's *Mr Sunshine* has a few Wackie like tracks; *Equal Rights* and *They Don't Care* sound like they are straight from Bullwackie's studio.

I will be more specific with the releases listed and will work on it after I have finished my update for my Upsetter discography. ;)

Thanks for quick reply, Ron.
Upon reading this in in your list, I listen to the whole LP again, and yes, soundwise it may be linked to Bullwackie.
I was even wondering, if it is a Jamaican or US release, because there is no info on label or cover. But my guess was always, that it came from the USA.

Again I have to praise you for this fantastic discography. Despite there is still a lot of info to add I'm extremely happy you done this.

Fantastic Ron.. Loving the whole sight.. As ever more questions.. Audrey Rollins alli want is listed under 12" .. I am sure I have this on10" .. Was it released on both?.. Also on the upsetters section( simply awesome too) under culture star label only 2 listings.. There is another.. Is him/ version - king Burnett.. A beautiful melodica tune.. Anyone know if its black ark.. I read somewhere its circa '75 but any info would be great.. Sir dickie

*All I Want* was indeed released on both 10 and 12 inch. I haven't yet listed the 10 inch, I noticed but will do so with my next update. ;)

As for the King Burnett tracks; they were listed years ago, probably because of the *Upsetters* credit on the label.
Now, I'm not too sure myself about Lee Perry's involvement.
My updated discography will still list releases like these, but I will try and point out why they are listed.
I see mention of 'Probably mixed and/or recorded at Black Ark in 1975' on the net, though personally I think late '72, early '73 is more plausible, knowing there's a Junior Byles release on the same label with *Beat Down Babylon*.
