There is still missing one fine track from Laurel (a tribute to him) in most dicographies. I think he performed a track called: I'm a rebel, not the devil ... i'm gonna rebel with you tonight ... with the british ska band "the riffs". This one was produced by Unicorn Records in the late 80ies. Who knows more or could correct this Post?
cheers

Dear rudeprince69,

the record you' re looking for is produced in fact by Unicorn records in 1990.
The record is called "two nights of ska" Laurel Aitken is accompanied by Derrick Morgan on the DOLP.
The track "I'm a rebel" is on the second LP (track 20.)
Maybe there is also a studio-version of this song also produced by Unicorn Records?

So here is the complete track-list for you. If you can grab one of the copies, get it, cause it's very rare!
