Re: Versions of well known tunes..
There are indeed literally hundreds of versions to the songs mentioned, which themselves are versions to the original riddims.
Just wanted to mention that the Al Campbell who is named on 'Take a ride' is not the same as the famed singer who nowadays resides in England and gave us so many fine Lovers & Roots tunes from the 70s until today...

Earl Zero, Jah Wally Stars & Rising Son recorded for JA labels New Flower & Addis Ababa. Producer on these sides was by Allan Campbell (not related to the two Al Campbells mentioned above).

Check riddimbase.org. It's not perfect but it's the most accurate.

Jah Love Music used to run a Tony Tuff cut of Truth & Rights. Early 80's Channel One cut. Great style.
