Hi,
Can anyone tell me any other tracks that carries the same base line that is used in the above song.
I know I have this base line on another track but cannot think of the song or possible a dub.
Any ideas as it is driving me mad.
Thanks
Dave

Could this be yet another reggae record that was influenced by Al Green's "Love & Happiness" ??

Hi Rootsman,
check out the 12" record "Going To Negril" by Althea & Donna. It was released on Front Line/Virgin (I guess in 1978, but I'm not sure). "Going To Negril" is the same riddim as Devon Iron`s "Jerusalem". This riddim is wicked and I like it a lot.
