Fittest Of The Fittest/Fittest Horns
(Cousin 10")

Cheers Version Control )
Fittest Horns would fit ;o) with what I've heard as the horns are out front on the Dub I mentioned
Must keep an eye out for this 10inch


Dub On!

There is another recut/remix of this tune by Mafia & Fluxy with the riddim in a bit more steppers style, still basically quite the same tune all the way. It is to be found on Roots & Culture vol. 6 cd under the title of "Call On Jah". Actually I think the vocal recording on all the three cuts mentioned is the same one, as it does sound so much the same on all of them. I am not sure if he had first hand information, it's been a while, but I once heard at least speculation from a friend that Mafia & Fluxy got the original Barry vocal from Bunny Lee and just played the riddim over for the recut(s).

Thanx for your help all,

But, who can give me the lyrics of 'No Wicked Shall Enter The Kingdom Of Zion' ?

There's also a version on the 'Jah Love Rockers' double compilation, listed as 'No Wicked Shall Enter (The World of Zion)' by Barry Brown. Can't help with the lyrics though, I'm afraid...

@Survival, lyrics of NO WICKED SHALL ENTER by BARRY BROWN, from memory:

If you are a wicked man you can not enter the kingdom of Zion, o no
If you are a wicked woman you can not enter the promised land of Ethiopia, o no
Better call on to Jah Jah
I and I father
Selah
Amlak
Jah said not one of his children shall go down with the walls of Jericho
Let Jah arise and let his enemies be scattered away

How good and how pleasant it is for I and I to dwell together
In the light of Jah Jah
(???) my brothers and sisters

maybe i missed a couple of lines

wow, nice Well Charge, they are correct.

Well Charge wrote:In the light of Jah Jah
(???) my brothers and sisters

Too bad you couldn't figure that one out. I wasn't able to figure that one out myself.

edit:
minor error:

Well Charge wrote: If you are a wicked woman you can not enter the promised

is evil

The line you could not figure out is:

Let us live as one brother and sister

There's a wicked 12" cut which lasts for more than seven minutes on disc two of this [cover=5614,4272]
