Not 100% sure what you are asking, but **["Kouchie Vibes/Pass The Knowledge"](http://www.roots-archives.com/release/3 ... ight=48972)** can be found on the Trojan 12" Box Set.

I do have that 12" so if you need more info let me know and I'll go and dig it out. :)

Do a song search and it will identify if these tracks are taken from album.

I know the 12" mixes of Kouchie and Knowledge are only on compilations although the single versions are available on Mighty Diamonds albums

Just dug out the "Pass The Kouchie" 12" (MW 003A/B) and the b-side is actually "The Kouchie Burn". It starts off exactly the same as "Kouchie Vibes"/"Pass The Knowledge" (I was playing the Trojan 12" CD at the same time to compare them), but then goes in to a heavyweight dub cut as opposed to "Pass The Knowledge". Lovely stuff! :)

No date on the 12", but it says "From the coming album **["Changes"](http://www.roots-archives.com/release/1094)**", which was released in 1982.

Incidentally, I've just dug out my copy of "Changes" and it was definitely 1982.
Not sure why RA has "Record date:1981" and then "#BSLP 11981 - 1982". Confusion caused by the matrix # maybe?

Actually, I have just noticed the Matrix # is actually MW 11981A/B

Meanwhile on the label the a-side says AS LP 11981 and the b-side says BS LP 11981.

As you can see here;

Hi Dubs_West

Not a problem! :D

Very interesting "Pass The Knowledge" story and one that would make complete sense.
