Does anyone know the name of any original tracks (with vocals, no dub) or the original artist from the LP?

iirc the title track was recorded with Joseph & Far I singing/chanting at the same time in the studio so on this track you have the original recording.

"Peace Perfect Peace" by Far I was on the same rhythm and also released in 1977. Can anyone remember whether that was the first release of the rhythm or was Message From The King/ Black Reggae Music out first in 1977?

Cheers

Rob

There's a couple of Errol Holt tunes on that album:

"Gimme" is the same riddim as "Concrete Column"

and "Who Have Eyes To See" is used on "Dry Bone"
