yes surely you're right ! but i though that the face was the same but the head dress is not the same for sure.
first time i saw the cover i though it was a woman symbolize the mama africa as the cover of one's peter tosh album. but i did know at that time what cumbolo means

Research into this mystery has left it open for debate: Woody Guthrie wrote and released the song "This Train" 1958! this same song was recorded by J.Hill but with a reggae touch, on my cassette it has This Train1958 and lower down says- Composers J.Hill and W.Guthrie notice the little star symbolising it`s connection. I was mistaken thinking that W.Guthrie worked on the whole album until i closely checked the detail...And W.Guthrie is a white guy from back in the day:D

Wow, that would be awesome if Woody Guthrie and Joseph Hill had actually collaborated on a track! Two of my musical heros. I've always wanted to hear the Woody Guthrie song "Sewing on the mountain, reaping in the valley..." done inna reggae style.
