@Jah Chicken
The 'Ready or not' album...
Other songs feature Max Romeo (Nobody's child, Sexy Sadie, Evening News) and Prince Far I (Deck of Cards; great alternating version of this to Joe Gibbs' version) plus an unknown DJ and two dub/instrumental versions.

The "unknown DJ" is Scotty

Are you sure about that? I can find no source assuring that Scotty ever recorded for Winston Riley.

No, I'm not. That's speculation based on the sound of the DJs voice and style. But if Scotty only recorded for Derrick Harriot for instance, then this could be completely wrong.

I don't think the original (imo superior) Techniques 7" version was ever on any album?

It's on the 14 Karat Gold Hits LP on Techniques along with some other killer tunes.

Here's a Scotty recording for Winston Riley, though it may not be the same "Scotty" given that its with Nardo Ranks and its from 1990...

Well, first of all, I don't distrust information from the RKR-website, but the online-issue lacks so much information that is available in print or from the cd-rom.
According to these sources, Scotty did not record for Techniques in the early 1970s. He might have done during his short-lived 'revival-time' around 1990.
