Cornell Campbell and Linval Thompson releases on blood & fire have extended versions.

These are not really showcase style, but include dubs and vocals (like the Jacob Miller): Hugh Mundell's "Africa Shall be Free by 1983" is available on cd with dubs. Also Horace Andy's "IN the Light" on B&F.

I haven't picked this up yet, but apparently the new SUgar Minott release on Moll Selecta is mostly 12" selections.

"Horace Andy - Showcase" available on cd? Didn't know that. Do you have any details for me John P?
thanks!

Blood and fire's Horace Andy - Good vibes would classify too as it's songs and version from 12 inches. And good ones too.
