I second "Tribal Inna Yard" !! Wicked. Like an idiot I sold my copy years ago and had only put two of the songs on a cassette.

I've been on the serch for his albums for about one year these are the few that I have had the luck to find.
1 - The best of Freddie mckay (GG'S)
2 - Creation (JOE GIBBS)
3 - Tribal inna yard (MOVE)
4 - I'm a free man (UPTEMPO)
I was wondering if HARSH WORDS LP is worth getting ?

Informer, would you be willing to list the titles of some of the songs on your CDRs? I can hardly find any information about Freddie McKay, and a wee discography would be great!
It is a shame that his songs are spread around so many producers, and that is probably why there there has never been a collection/compilation - imagine trying to sort out licensing and contracts for that!

I had this Joe Gibbs album but was very deceived because almost half of the tracks were missing, some intros too, a complete mess.
As far as I know, the only complete version of that album is the one on the Plant Music label (all tracks are there, in excellent quality).
