I am trying to date my copy of The Wailers' African Herbsman, can anybody help? It is undated on a blue Trojan label TRLS 62 stereo - not sure when Trojan started using blue labels. 'S11' & 'S12' on central vinyl. It was certainly old when I bought it in the early 1980's, so it does not look like the 1978 reissue. The inner sleeve is one of those old Decca paper/poly ones with instructions for record care on it. The question is, is it the 1973 original issue?

Thanks.

most of the stuff on that album was already released on the "soul rebels" "soul revolution I" in 1970-71. Lee Perry released that album after the wailers already left him in 1972 with some bonus tracks like african herbsman in 1973
