does anyone know all the singers on this album? i know sugar minott do devil pickney and baltimore is the tamlins, what other artist on here(they really should have listed the damn singers.)

[well charge]

Triplet
Devil Pickney
Rock Music
Pure & True
Vla Music
Fort Augustus
Sitting & Watching
Baltimore
Taxi Connection
Bang Bang
Red Hot
Those Tricks
Unmetered Taxi

don't know the album but looking at the titles I guess 'Rock Music' is by Struggle, 'Fort Augustus' must be the Junior Delgado classic, that's about as much as I can help you.

[well charge]

Oh yeah, and 'Sitting and Watching" is Dennis Brown

Pure & True is aka "Give Me Your Love" by Jimmy Riley, released on Powerhouse 7inch, a remake of Jimmy's "Give Me A Love", which he recorded at Perries Black Ark studio in 74/75.
