Greetings!
GREAT music, Earthman Connection is one of those desert island discs of mine for sure! MUCH respect to the man Roy Cousins!
"National Music" = The Royals "Sufferer Of The Ghetto", also versioned on King Tubby's "Psalm of the Time" as "Psalm 1".

[digitalJ]

True..nuff RASpect to the one Roy Cousins. If you really want to appreciate , just get every Roy produced , from the Royals , Earl 16 down to the Don Carlos Never Run Away lp on KINGDOM. Masterpieces!

digitalJ,

At last i have you to confirm that there are two different 'High priest of Dub' albums.My question is 'was it by mistake?This is so confusing.Same track titles,track order and cover art only to find out they are not the tracks you expected.

I wouldn't know whether or not it was a mistake , but one other example is the Don Carlos lp , that was titled Never Run Away .It came out on KINGDOM , but then a few of the tracks from that lp came out on another TAMOKI lp called Don Carlos & Gold - Ghetto Living...and these tracks have totally different bass-lines, just the same lyrics(tracks such as It Was Love ,Every Time I See You).

Another example is the Zimbabwe Dread - Earthman Connections lp (this one http://www.roots-archives.com/release/2986) which came out on KINGDOM and then this Baba Dread - Earthman Connection (this one http://www.roots-archives.com/release/4780) which came out on TAMOKI with different songs...a few the same as from the KINGDOM one , and let Zimbabwe Dread is the same person as Baba Dread.
There's more confusion when you look at some Charlie Chaplin releases as well

These are Roy Cousins' liner notes from the relatively recent **["Earthman Connection"](http://www.roots-archives.com/release/4780)** CD release;

"Earthman Connection was voiced and mixed at Channel 1 Studios. Engineered by Ernest Hookim 1978-1979.

This album was first released in the United Kingdom in 1978, *under license from tamoki-wambesi-dove, by Kingdom Records*, 9-11 Monmouth Street, London WC2H 9DA.

Earthman Connection was released by *Kingdom Records who changed the name of the artist from Baba Dread to Zimbabwe Dread*.

Baba Dread at the time of recording this album was the top sound system DJ from the parish of Clarendon, Jamaica, West Indies.

To Tamoki-Wambesi-Dove knowledge Earthman Connection is Baba Dreads only album made by the artist.

Tamoki-Wambesi-Dove rerelease Earthman Connection on CD with bonus tracks from Copie Copewell, The Royals, Winston Jarrett and Knowledge.

Nuff respect to all Reggae fans - Roy Cousins."

My *highlights*, by the way.

Not sure if that helps or hinders!
