In the mid to late 70's there was an amazing track going round the uk based on why oh why. The only lyrics I remember are 'Marshall General'.
Anybody know the track and artist? Many thanks

I have the Horace Andy Dub Box album and there is a song there thats called "why oh why dub" based on Charlie Ace's "George Foreman" rhythm. Maybe it's that?

Thought it could be Horace Andy but have been unable to locate the track.
Any chance of uploading this track or sending it to me somehow?

Thanks for all the help.
Riddim search link is magic.
Looking into this it could be General Echo - Adam & Eve. The time is about right and it ties in with the words 'marshall general' being involved.
Does anyone have a clip of this?
