Gregory Isaacs - 'Be Yourself'

Does anyone have the Gregory Isaacs 2CD set 'All I have Is Love/Anthology'. I was thinking of buying it but I want to know if disc 2 track 12 'Be Yourself' is the full 6 minutes 20 seconds dubbed up version?
Any help greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Rob

Can't answer that Rob but a great way to have that extended track is pick up the 'Beautiful Africa' African Museum / Trojan 10"

The B side of this 10" carries 'African Woman' (aka 'Be Yourself') plus dub version.

Thanks Jackie P, I'll certainly do that. I've had the full version on tape since the mid 80s but I'd love to get it on vinyl again. I think I recorded it off a friend's copy of the album 'The Sensational Gregory Isaacs' In the meantime I've answered my own question on the 'All I Have Is Love/Anthology Compilation' - it is a disappointing chopped version lasting 2mins 40 seconds.
