the one that got away is 'Red, Green and Gold' on Alligator Records from 1982, though it might be a compilation for the american market 'Black Slate' was just the same.

I do know that Sticks Man came out on at least 3 different labels, I've got 2 of them .The first I was aware of was a 7" on Dover records (1976) I then got my 1st and 2nd copies as a 12" on TCD and Top Ranking records in the early 80's. They did a remixed more commercial version on their Ensign records lp to capitalise on the success of Amigo in the UK (a national chart hit). Not sure if it actually got released, but I don't think it found favour with the reggae community.
