Really just because "Model with Me" is in my Top 10 all time favourites - I'd love to hear anything else by Ringo that's as creative.

Hmmm ... I've got that album ... but I can't say that I remember how Model With Me Sounds. Plant Up Yu Vinyard was always my choice cut on that album. Draw it with the vocal Edi Fitzroy-cut. PURE dance in my apartment.
[cover=2918,3342]
This one has always been my favourite but I don't have it. Mainly because the reissue is lousy and I can't be arsed to track down the original.

Yeah, Cool Profile is a big fave of mine too. I'd agree with kalcidis about "Plant Up Yu Vineyard" - man, what a great track.
Strange that two of my favorite DJ albums are called "Cool Profile".... the Colour Man album of the same name is also a killer.

Yeah, but the Colourman LP is the better one in my opinion. And throw in the Earl Cunningham 12" for good measure.

And what about 'African Descendant'? Is Edi Fitzroy the singer on the riddim track?
Anyone has the info on the dub/vocal version of that riddim?

"Woman a Ginal" for me because it includes one of my favourite Ringo tracks "Ganja Exchange" on the Ali-Baba rhythm.

Maheek; Yeah, he is the singer but I do not think there's a clean vocal of that one. There is however a Horace Martin song on the same rhythm with the same lyrics released on a Musical Ambassador 7".
