Johnny Dollar by the Rolands? Uses some of the words anyway.

[Jah Glu]

I think the best version is Noisy Place by Tubbs

[James]

"Indiana Jones" on Raiders of the Lost Dub

http://www.roots-archives.com/release/1566

is also from The Paragons' version of "Man Next Door."

I posted earlier but must not have logged in first!

I have the GORGON label 7" re issue with the King Tubby and the Aggrovators
QUIET DUB on the B side

you can get it at reggaerecord.com just do a song search for QUIET PLACE,
also if you do a song search here you will see it on a H. ANDY CD

nice work BassGroove, I like the clanking pots and pans mix on the Paragons b/w I Roy 7' on Andy's, prob. the most valuable of the lot. Bim's is a killa, too. The original Jamaican cut was by the Paragons in 1968 as Man in My Neighborhood on their self-prod. Supertone label. I'd guess it was a US track originally....

Cheers for the info folks )

aaaand another one -> Frankie Paul - 'No Rest'

The Horace Andy version + Dub appears on the reverse side of a Trojan 10inch - TJHTE 010
A side is 'Ain't No Sunshine'
Also the Tubby's Dub is listed sometimes as 'Dub Place'

I like the irony in the Bim Sherman version where he sings 'I've got to find a noisier place' ;o)
