Prince Far I part of New Town Sound Ltd.?

Post by Selector J »

There is a mysterious group that appears on the Trojan Roots Box Set
[cover=3560,3759]
and absolutely nothing else found in the Roots Archives database. The vocalist sounds quite similar to, if not exactly like, Prince Far I. So is this Prince Far I? What's the story behind the group. Did they cut other 7"s or 12"s? I don't have my liner notes for the Trojan Roots handy, so it probably mentions it there...

Just curious.

Well, Prince Far I did release a song with almost the identical title on his album Free From Sin (also released on Trojan). So it could be him and that song. Unfortunately I haven't heard the New Town Sound Ltd. track unfortunately.

Tune is de great "I & I Are The Choosen One" (same ina "Free From Sin" album) by Prince Far I. New Town Sound Ltd. is de name of de mark dat hav copyright. Simply typical notes error on Trojan Box Set series.

This tune is also part 2 of a Hitrun disco 45, part one is Peter Broggs "I and I A Field Marshall". The dub of it can be found on the "Dub To Africa" LP.
