Israel Vibration

Post by flashman »

Can someone help me clarify who sings what? It should be obvious, I guess, but I keep getting confused. Anyone out there ( sure there are many) clear on this? Taking Unconquered People as an example, are my guesses correct?

1. Give I Grace -Skelly
2. Friday Evening- Apple
3. Mr. Taxman - Wiss
4. Survive- Wiss
5. Top Control -Skelly

1.We A De Rasta - Apple
2. Unconquered People - Wiss
3. Possibility- Skelly
4. Dwellers of Darkness - Wiss
5. Practice What Jah Teach - Apple

I have another question. Roots Radics are listed as backing band on Israel Vibration debut, but the personnel includes no one from Roots Radics... What's up with that? Also, The RR were formed in the same year the IV debut was released...

Likely it's just some error done when adding info.

Also strange is that there's a dub version of the album by Fatman Riddim Section called Israel Tafari Dub. But the musicians list for Same Song doesn't list the Lewis brothers.

(1) the first Israel Vibration LP was "same song" (JA top ranking / UK Harvest) roots radics didn't play on this and weren't listed on the sleeve)

(2)the third LP was "why you so craven" on arrival - i think it was the first release on the "arrival" label and one of the earliest LP's credited to Junjo Lawes - band listed on the original press was the hi times band

(3) fatman riddim section LP's have often included more than just the Lewis Bros - most also credit sly and robbie and others

(4) true - israel tafari seems an oddity though!
