Is there vocal cuts for "The Grunwick Affair,Zion Dub,Shi-cago and None Jah Jah Children"?

"Blood Ah Go Run"! is this the vocal version?

I remember I once heard a vocal version of 'None Jah Jah Children', think it Ras Michael

Yes Leggo on this one:

(RA does not mention, but LP exists on pressure sound)

Its a melodica version and a good tune.

ps: co-incidentally, does that exists? ...

Howdy,

On Decibel, most tracks comes from these 4 lps:
[cover=6647,4661]and[cover=5930,4389]

2-3 tracks are from Brain Damage and Audio Active. As far I remember, no tracks from Strictly Dubwize or I Wah Dub.

Great set nonetheless!!!

And for the original question:

I guess Bovell put lots of composed dubs, I mean not dubs to vocal cuts (but I may be very wrong here!!!).

None Jah Jah Children is indeed a re-work of Ras Michael's classic, Shi-Cago appears on Brain Damage as Dutty...
