i was listening to the israelites by desmond dekker a few years ago, when my father walked in the room and said he'd recognized that song and it was called "double barrel" but i told him that wasnt. he shortly told me a story that when he was nine, my grandfather had brought a record from he u.s.a. it was a record tittled "hits" (78rpm) and on there were "double barrel"by dave & ansell collins and "israelites" by the late desmond dekker,they were accompanied by other 70s hit tunes. i thought it was pretty cool how he remembered both songs that were two intl.reggae hits, the year was 1971!!!!!
