Anyone heard of the old Adrian Sherwood label, Carib Gems, having done reissues? Caught wind of this and was skeptical since I can't find any info on it.
Just curious...

Don't think so, and wasn't that Pete Weston's label?

the two ska compilations were recently still available on ebreggae, the prince far I "psalms for I" was also around in the shops until recently, so somebody must have been reissuing them

only released on a blank 7"... Wouldn't surprise me if yours is a pirate copy.. I have for example seen several more very rare 7"es as pirate pressings during the years. like for example: Vernon Allen - babylon R&B 7", prince buster - Vera Cruz, several early wailers singles.
