Roots Archives Forum

Who produced this album?

Also, on the cover of the VP reissue, it says 1978, but Roots Archives shows 1979. So I don't know when the original release date was.

original release was on Top Cat 7'' , than Top Ranking 7''...backed by Augustus Pablo

I don't know the exact Year , i have the top ranking one but there is no date!

Didn't Lee Perry produce some of (if not all) the tracks on this album?

To me, the sound is more like Marley's sound during that time period.

Could be, but I seem to remember reading in Dave Katz' *People Funny Boy* that I Kong had journeyed to the Black Ark and did some recording there...

Check http://www.reggae-vibes.com/concert/ikong/ikong.htm

OK, so Perry had nothing to do with it. I retract my suggestions!

The original single is from 1972 (incidentally, it isn't the track on the album).

himself he said that he got robbed and got nothing to do with this pressings, he was at top ranking studio dat time, his album still didnt release in a legal way so he was working on a new one which came out as cd, by the way i know the album on "tuff gong" records, but dont know the release date..

I bought it when it came out and I reckon that was 1979.

Incidentally, the cover of **["A Little Bit More: Joe Gibbs 12" Selection 1978-1983"](http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/B0018B7RTM)** should read "..**1977**-1983!" so not sure how accurate the dates on some VP covers are.
