I have a 10 inch single by Aswad. It originally came free with an Aswad LP.
Anyone know which one? I'd like to reunite them.

It came with »Not Satisfied«. I've got the 10" but not the LP. Great 10" by the way.

Which one again, is it Finger Gun Style? I think some of their CBS 10"s came upon the cd re-releases

If it's the one I'm thinking about then it is;
Unsatisfied and Oh Jah (Dub)

'Oh Jah Dub' and 'Unsatisfied' it is
Thanks guys.
It seems then that I also have the 10" but not the LP. Is the LP as good as the 10?

Hi Leggo Rocker
I personally don't think so. Definitely nothing as good as 'Oh Jah Dub'.

Thanks 6anbatte.
I have Distant Drums. It's crap! Later Aswad stuff not so good methinks...
As with just about any reggae artist you care to mention, the later stuff ain't so good. Except Sugar and Gregory who seemed to be able to produce rocking riddims well into the late 80s.

Hi Leggo Rocker
Someone gave me it back in the day. (Thankfully, I am seen as a good home for friend's discarded reggae LPs
. Sometimes I get given THE most amazing stuff). It's really not my thing to be honest (other that "Warrior Charge").
I did play the 10" the other day and did think that was pretty good. On the back of that I briefly put the album on. I say briefly!
Trouble is I can't help thinking of the Double Deckers, if you know what I mean!
