Albums by Little John & Lone Ranger

That so called Black Symbol album is actually a collection of 7" singles that inludes the version sides to make them look like a showcase album.

Like you say, there were to be no discussing of trading mp3's on the forum, that's probably why your discussion with the moderator (i wonder if in fact it was a moderator) took place by email.
too serious. Really, this whole dbase isn't like a bible!

It was a moderator.

this will answer M & M?
These two tracks both ride Sugar Minott's massive Informer rhythm, each chocka with living dancehall vibes and Channel One-style deadliness. A graduate of soundsystems like Gemini and Volcano Hi Power, Little John was twelve years old when he voiced this tune, shifting its sights from snitches and stoolies, straight to the head of all dancecrashers. It appeared in 1983 during Sugar's stay in London after "Good Thing Going" was a huge pop hit in 1980, coming on the Stoke Newington label M & M — presumably named after Minott and his then-partner, Coxsone Dodd's niece Maxine Stowe. Appearing first with Wackies' pink-to-orange labels, Batta's cut is a different mix again to the version on his album. He bows to U-Roy at the start, before switching to more a more contemporary delivery. Sugar is in attendance throughout, almost as if the pair were taking turns at the mic, before the dub takes over.
