There's also a boatload of singles Ossie produced, on the Ossie Sounds and Earthquake labels. Here's a few...

**Ossie Sounds 7"**
Clint Eastwood - Jump and Pawn (197x)
Earth & Stone - Dress Back Wicked (1977)
Frankie Jones - Rasta Children (197x)
Junior Ross & the Spear - Run to The Rock (197x)
Leroy Smart - So Strong (1978)
Rod Taylor - Every Little Thing (197x)
U Brown - Heavy Than Lead (1977)

**Earthquake 7"**
Gregory Isaacs - Salary Is Thin / U Brown - Sister Dawn Down a Farm (1979)
Horace Andy - Ain't No Sunshine (1976)
Jah Earl - Bring the Cushey Come (197x)
Jah Sonny - Natty Cool (197x)
Revolutionaries - Kissinger / Death Sentence (1976)
Trevor - Lion Fence (198x)

**Earthquake 12"**
Cornell Campbell - Mash You Down / Sweet Talking (1979)
Earth & Stone - Migrate (197x)
Ruddy Thomas - Long Time Ago / Jimmy Riley - Summer Time (197x)

Also, I believe the original issue of Gregory Isaac's "The Sun Shines for Me" was produced by Ossie, even though it surfaced later on an African Museum single.

One of the all-time underrated producers/arrangers in JA!

I have been informed that "Crueshal Dub" is Disc One of "Evolution of Dub Vol 5".

However, there are 10 tracks on the Disc (8 of which have been song titled) as opposed to 9 untitled songs on the original LP.

Hope it is the same tracks as the "Crueshal Dub" album is a classic and deserves to be made available for all to hear.

[cover=719,836]

Classic album

"Washing I Dread by The River" is an amazing track.

BTW on the CD issue of "Earthquake Dub" there are 2 bonus cuts to this track that are worth the price of the CD on their own.
