Could you elaborate please? I'm not too familiar with Alton Ellis's work.

I wasn't sure what the song was called earlier but I just realised it's called [Get Ready For Rocksteady](

Thanks so much Ron. Although I still can't find the exact version used in this dub and I've done a whole lot of searching myself, at least I've got something similar to listen to now.

Ha, I didn't even realise that.

That's his second dubtrack on the album then.

Wow the answer was right in front of us the whole time. Apart from being the flip of the Rootsman single with the Cheer Up 7" that Ron previously identified as Jug Head Dub. This one can also be found on a Nationwide 12" under the name Natty Rock Reggae.
Thanks so much for your help guys.
