I was listening to a sound class from 1985 with Supercat, Nicodemus, Frankie Paul & Eeek-a-Mouse. Called Sir Coxsone Shock of the century. Really nice live session from 85. Anyways on the second disc they begin to run the Junjo Lawes version of Mad Mad or Yellowmans-Zungazeng riddim. When the record drops it begins and the song being played on the record is Nitty Gritty doing "Run Down The World". Does anyone know if this was an actual 12"/7" release?????

This was not a dubplate, There is no mention of any sound or HI-Fi in the tune just the same lyrics as the Jammys version..
HIt me back if anyone knows..
Respect

Re: Anyone have an actual copy of Nitty Gritty-"Run Down The World" on the Junjo Lawes "Mad Mad" Riddim
