There is a reason why this one's not in the 'Archives', seen ? It's quite rare and sells for horrendous money...maybe the question can be answered when more japanese collectors join this forum :)

found on the net :

Joe soon began recording for other producers, including Bunny Lee ["Tradition Skank"], Pete Weston ["750 Four" and "Don't Give Up"], future Congos vocalist Watty Burnett ["Jacket" and "Psalm 54"], Enos McLeod ["Bag A Wire" and "Mount Zion"], Derrick Howard ["Natty Don't Make War"] and Ivanhoe 'Lloydie Slim' Smith ["No Vacancy Fe Bald Head"]. In 1977 he recorded sides for George McLean ["Long Run Short Catch" and "Peace Talk"] and more importantly 'Prince' Tony Robinson, who renamed him Ranking Joe and for whom he cut a series of singles which sold reasonably well. All these tracks were included on his debut LP "The Best Of Ranking Joe" for the same producer's Groovemaster label.

one love
